After lunch while listening to Arch Manning choke I am getting this engine bay built back

Most of the valves were close but one was way way loose. I think this thing will cook off much quieter than when it arrived.

DUI and Livewires in place

Alright. We are in business. All the engine noise is gone with the valve adjustment.

I need to pull the dissy and clock it back one notch as I can't get it to show up on the timing light.

Getting close .....



PS...it would not start at first but I reran the wizard and it fired right up. I'm assuming the old MSD ignition and PowerSurge had something off.
 
I didn't get a good pic of the before...was in too much of a hurry that day I guess

But the after is much cleaner. Not only the powder but the passenger fender losing all that MSD nonsense

Got the timing adjusted, IAC dialed in. Running great so I added a new OEM air filter and buttoned it up.

Tried to fix the speedo cable but it's a goner so I had to order one.

I'm down to some small stuff and one last big item, the EPS install. That usually takes me a day to install.

I may have to head to Houston Monday to pick up a couple of Saudi 80s so I may wait to start this until I'm back.

Either way I'm close close.

Exact pics I needed for my sniper fuel filter/ pump runs in my build. Many thanks!
Just know the "in" on the corvette filter is the barb on the side.
