Re: JackdTruck - the overly ambitious 1969 K10 LWB Project

After buttoning up a few items and filling fluids we were finally ready to start the truck up for the first time!

Engine ready to rock:




Exhaust supported - we didn't have hangers figured out yet








The startup process for the Holley Sniper and Hyperspark is pretty simple, but we had a few issues with it not wanting to start. Long story short, don't get so excited to put things together that you forget to adjust your idle screw when you put the unit on your engine or it can't breathe.

Once I cracked the throttle while cranking the engine it fired right up! We still had to do some fine tuning, but for now it was running and we were stoked!

I've uploaded a couple videos to YouTube if you'd like to check it out.
