Talking Got my 400 sbc fired up today!!!

Got the rebuilt 400 sbc fired up in my Blazer this afternoon. Sounds really good even through the existing glasspacks. Still a bit to do to be able to drive it but finally fired up!!!!!!

Doesn't look like the alternator is working, I have a short in the wiring that controls some of the outside lights and dash and the temp gauge may be off a bit, but she runs!!!!!!

Here's an audio file of her running

I swear, I could smell unburnt fuel coming from my computer after listening to that . Actually I like the sound of the old glass packs since you don't hear them everyday anymore.
