RIPSNZ Posted October 27, 2007 Author Share Posted October 27, 2007 Update: She's all finished and we'll be running it up on the dyno Monday/Tuesday. Put the new street rims and tyres on and I'm really happy with the way it looks but I might drop the front an inch or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPSNZ Posted October 29, 2007 Author Share Posted October 29, 2007 All went really well, did our initial checks, set base fuel pressure, base ignition timing, brought up oil pressure etc, fired her up, ran the cams in and after 20 mins or so of running we've settled her to a mild idle @ 1500rpm for now, will give it some good work and medium level power runs on the dyno tomorrow, all looks very promising so far More to come................
