That's why with a new engine I always wait a week b/f mixing anti freeze w. the water. No $ on the ground. k
now i could say thanks guys for all your help!! you guys are the best
had an issue with timing marks not being correct it was weird, but non the less my buddy Jose figured it out the battery went and died i guess from sitting for five months and the header smoked off all the beatiful paint off hahaha gotta do little things to it still like reroute wires, buy a carb spacer for it and figure out how to put the old fan shroud on, and the exhaust for being a moderate lope cam it doesnt lope to much but man i love how it sounds.
hope you guys enjoy shes open headers as of right now but i cant drive just yet im waiting on my lokar throttle cable.
