Yes I had a big on my face and it just purrs when the choke is fully open. I blew my junkyard coil and have temporaily borrowed our '78 F-250's. Well the truck isn't going anywhere since it needs guages, tranny shifter, driveshaft shortning, etc. I think I might try to make a video like joners but don't have anywhere to host it. Thanks for the complements guys! You make it all worth while.

Congrats! I'm green with envy. I was hoping to get mine fired up this year, but just didn't get that far.

It will be a little while before I get the video made. I had alot of fun getting it running. Getting the timing right and trying to figure out why it was backfiring through the carb. I finally got it to fire on 4 cylinders than I tried the other fireing order and VROOM. Just my tach doesn't seem to want to work now and it's running a little rich. It never blew blue smoke when it started which was really nice from a junkyard engine.
