I finished rebuilding the engine today and drove it out about 10 minutes ago.

Lets see if anything goes wrong in the next 10 miles. Cross your fingers for me!

just got back from my break in drive.

27 miles. And it still runs. No overheating.


I picked up the heads yesterday, and got new head gaskets and exhaust gaskets today ($65) and started installing stuff. Until I noticed a farcking exhaust valve was cracked. Not so happy with my cylinder head rebuilders too say the least. I took it back and the replaced it withen the hour.

Then spent some time getting all together while still bossing my employees around. haha

Then finally fired the reddevil up. Wow. What a horrid sound. My god do rebuilt heads make a clatter. Took about 25 miles until the last drivetrain sound dissappeared.

But it runs and drives great! I do the hard break in. Where I run it up to 5k and drop off. Over and over, and then drive it fairly hard around but I never keep the rpms way up without letting up.

I didnt install the supercharger. While an idiot, I aint stupid. Usually. I will hold off at least for a few days. :p Am trying to get a Perfect Power so I can pull my timing and extend my engine life!

Good night!

IT'S ALIVE!!!! (just a friendly reminder)
