It's Alive!
 
I finally got my motor fired up tonight. I rebuilt the whole thing, flycut the pistons, and added a tr230 cam and milled 243 heads with patriot dual springs. Now I get to work on tuning it! Here is a short vid clip of it firing up:

sounds awesome! whats that whining though, at first i thought you had a blower lol.

I think it was from the throttle body I ported. Once the idle was halfway learned and I didn't have to keep my foot on the pedal it went away.

Sounded good man. But I gotta ask.... whats up with the chrome fender trim stuff around the tail lights? LOL

Its actually a tribal design but you can't tell from far away. I bought it like that. It also has flames on the side that you can't see and red tinted side windows. I probably wouldn't do all that myself but now that I own it I don't mind it too much.

Sounds good. Glad to hear that whining went away.
