test run

Did a test run. First time I got her to 5000 rpm. The speedometer is not calibrated yet. The specs are 355cu, 10:1 compression, 4:10 gears and 29" tall tires. I have a major exhaust leak, that melted my valve cover gasket, tried to modify my headers to accommodate angle plug heads. It is amazing how fast a plug wire will burn when it touches 1000 degree headers. Custom headers on the way.

I just did my taxes and reviewed my SS statement. Thanks to the current administration it looks like I will only have to work till noon on the day of my funeral.
