Update, Did you find those fuel connections yet, and when you are done and you going to do a VIDEO of the first start up for everyone to shiver with excitement on the first turn of the KEY?

The 390 lives!!!

Unfortunately, I was not able to be there for the initial fire up, as that happened yesterday (truck is at Matt's house in Bryan and I live in Richardson). Matt got the cam broken in, re-adjusted the valves, tuned on the carb, etc. Hopefully I'll get a video soon!

The headers are leaking a bit, so there's a an annoying tick, and Matt still has some tuning to do on the carb. It's great to finally hear it run, tho!
