IT RUNS!!! Fired it up for the first time since Nov. '06. Went off on the first turn of the key. Have to fix 2 minor coolant leaks and a trans fluid leak. I expected a lot more things to have to go over. Also need to finish wiring the car, it's about 90% complete after probably 20 hours into it. I really wanted to get a video of it running but didn't have a video camera handy.

Now, to iron out those small issues and head to the dyno for some full power tuning I will post a link when I have a video ready.

The car is looking good! I've been wanting to do a fiberglass setup for my car and this thread is very helpful. You have done a great job!

"Bringing it out to the Mopar Nats? "

Sorry JT, I wish I could. Even though it is running, it seems that there is a never ending list of things to finish.

Fixed the trans leak friday. Had it running for a good 35 min. playing with the map. Starts and idles almost like a stocker even with the crane 18's. Thanks everyone for the kudos. Still tryin to get that video...

[BadAssPerformance]

Bummer, but I hear ya on the neverending list... mine is all apart again trying to finish stuff taht did not gety fixed before SDAC, LOL!

[DaveSkrab]

Awesome progress Brian!! Looking forward to seeing you and the car again soon. Maybe some shakedown runs at Cecil in the near future? or maybe shakedown runs at Cecil in November?

At any rate, Keep up the Great work!

HURRY! Finish the BSX before the baby is born... Things tend to grind to a halt after that, believe me

[turbo2point2]

Shakedown passes are definitely in the future, however I can't say just when. I think the car should be ready to go before Cecil in November. Bigger injectors are on the way, might need a fuel pump upgrade as well...

Thanks for the advice Alan. I will be busting my butt getting that car done before he gets here. I will be looking forward to spending a lot of time with him and my wife.

Ok, on to the good stuff. I uploaded 2 videos, unfortunately I had to shoot them with my digital camera because the dvd camera wouldn't work for some reason, so I apologive for grainy footage and audio.


Cold startup


warm restart with some interior footage

Enjoy!!

[cordes]

Looks like it is running well. I can't wait to see some new times.

[contraption22]

It seems to sound alot like the recording of the PPG car at the Chrysler museum!

[Speedeuphoria]
