Love your build, so sorry at this point you have to weld on the pretty motor.

Thanks Mac will do. I pulled 3 of the plugs and they did not show any signs of excess fuel. I will pull the rest and inspect. I also have a noid light I can use to isolate which injector night be stuck on. I did have my injectors cleaned prior to installation and I'm running a new harness but it is worth checking out as hydro-locking was another cause I did read about.

Good suggestion...thxs.
