IDK I hate pull starts lol....If it has one and it's on my truck, it's getting changed.....Save your fingers the trouble and pick up a starter box asap....

Looks good overall...but it looks like you have air bubbles in your line.

Its been sitting for about 2 hours now, air is bound to leak back into the lines after a while. Doesn't have an air leak though so I'm not worried. It idles just fine, though the LSN is still a little rich, ran about 10 tanks total today through it. It already had been run was told 5 tanks, but I was just being safe with the break-in.

Tune is still not right, tends to load up at low speed, but the high-end is good enough that there is a steady stream of blue smoke.

Its not that hard to pull start if you've got your motor broken in and tuned decently. My force 26 (really crappy motor) would start on the first yank if you primed it. This motor seems to act similarly, though it acts up occasionally on start-up.

Its a real beast. It already ripped the bead of glue holding the rear tires off. This will be nearly uncontrollable at LH if I just tried hammering the throttle out of the corners and into the straights. Needs a gentle touch. Since I'm primarily a basher this works out great for me, the sheer acceloration and speed I can get out of this combo is perfect.

Rusty, there will be plenty of video of it sunday. You won't miss out, I promise.

BTW, I have those CD's for you too. You should come out so you can pick them up!

Chill out...I was just saying something to mabye help him out. I know that every big block I've owned has been a PITA to start with a pull start, and those were only .26's and .28's. He's got a .30. I recommended he get a starter box, I didn't say he had to. I wasn't trying to be an ass, just saying what I've picked up from personal experience. So chill.

im not trying to be mean but come on. Dont say one thing and then say you were saying another when its POSTED. His post came off like he was just bashing this guys truck when he took the time to make that motor fit and work.
