Look forward to seeing your car with the new bullet! Be careful if you head to Hardinsburg Friday night. It was pretty green last Friday night. Bunch of cars blowin' the tires off in the right lane! Will probably get better as time goes on. Good Luck! That's gonna be bad Mamma-Jamma. Laughing

That's what happens when you do your own thinking...maybe you should rely on your other half more Rolling Eyes I know the 8" couldn't take it, the 514 spun the guts out of it king

Dan,

If you are going to run the vacuum pump and the crankcase e-vac both,,,,,,I hope you have a good vacuum gauge hooked up. It might be easy to get too much vacuum.

By the way, the engine looks very nice Exclamation Very Happy
