My wife snuck up behind us and caught Dylan and I out test driving Albatrosss with the new 292 (bored to 301) and T98 built in the living room !
Running open headers and expired inspection in the big city is risky. We did fine.

That's pretty cool but I hope your local authorities don't watch it and nail you for not stopping at the signs,lol. Fun trip I bet.

 

Or the wife. We both rolled it. I NEVER roll stop signs. But the open headers were backfiring and I told Dylan " I'm rolling this stop sign.."
Busted by video!

 

Congrats on the first drive, making it all the way home is a big achievement! Brake lights hooked up yet?

 

I was thinking the exact same thing.

 

Nice video! Congratulations on the first drive (without stops)!

 

Actually, stopped at least twice. The bell crank came unhooked because the rebuilt carb's linkage hits at a different angle than the Lo-D'Oh!-Matic one did. Mummert intake and Holley 1948-1 carb coming soon. The rebuilders screwed up my -113 heads and there's a coolant leak under the right head. I went to re-torque and they were already REAL TIGHT. Warranty period is long over due to my knee replacement and such is life. I'm pissed. I'm thinking of rebuilding some ECZ-G heads or just buying Mummert heads and moving on.

 

Congrats.... On your first cruise

 

Yeah that's commonly known as a California stop around here LOL. Nice first drive, and getting the whole family involved makes it even more special. Congratulations, and thanks for sharing it with the rest of us.

 

That had to be a fun drive
