Well....
Camera sucks. Not sure if the tape is jacked up or if the camera was hating life.
Sound is fine though.
http://home.comcast.net/~mrluos/firststart.wmv
Doesn't idle at 950 RPM's too well yet. Probably gonna have to bump that up.
The camera sound doesn't pick up the actual sound very well. It sounded much better in person. Although even that will change once it gets a good tune on it.
No leaks.
Oil pressure was up around 60 PSI at 1400 RPM's.

The funny part....the idle is set at 950 RPM's. And it won't stay running.

Re: Well....
I'll still show you some LT1 tail lights  , Just messin. She seems to be pretty mean and fine tuning never comes out perfect the first time out especially with a complete custom engine like you have. I bet with a little tweaking she will be fine at idle with probably a little lope.

Beauty... even though I couldn't see shit from my crappy work monitor. But the audio was cool - lol, it sounded like my engine did when it idled at 750 RPM (computer and wires and opti were fucked...)
But man that's going to be bad ass dude - and that's your big cam you've got in there eh? Nice.

Re: Well....
I think the camera makes it sound like poo.
Must be because I heard it in person.
As soon as the car is back together I will pull it out and let it idle in the driveway. Should get better audio without the echo of the garage.
