Finally.... After so long, I was finally able to fire up the car last night. I'm sure my neighbors hate me.

I just want to say thanks to everyone that helped, or offered to help me along the way, including Billy who fought with my t-56 for two hours trying to get it in place, not to mention letting me borrow a few tools along the way. Also thanks to the site sponsors that I did business with along the way.
I still have a few things to buy, and sort though, but hopefully its on the road here soon. We originally set the idle at 1150, but it just wouldn't stay running for us. In the video its somewhere between 1200-1300rpm and still chopped hard. Hopefully we can get it back down to 1150 once everything else is taken care of.

Congrats man, I know you've been working on it for a while. Good luck buttoning everything else up! I want to see it rolling around!
