Video of my 55 startup
 
Thought I would post a video of a startup of my 55 and a look at some of the progress on the body, it has the first guide coat needs to be blocked.
The video is long so please ignore the chatting.

Thanks, It's running with open headers for now until I get it to the muffler shop, I have the exhaust for it that dumps in front of the rear wheel but I would like to have it ran out back.

I just need to get the body straight then I'll be happy.

is that a single line fuel rail? If so do you know exactly how it works? I think my ls1 is single rail and its confusing me. There has to be a bleed off somewheres for the extra fuel...

It is a single line, I have a return line that is made with a T fitting under the chasis before the fuel filter. Or you could get a 99 corvette fuel filter that has the return line connection built in, those filter are $50 while a T is a few dollars.

i don't know about the ls series motors, but i know that the modular mustangs use a returnless fuel system. the pcm varies the voltage to the pump to control fuel pressure
