My rebuild got it's first fill of oil. Plugs out. Spinning on the starter. It took a couple of 15 second pulls to top off the oil cooler. Ran up 40 PSI. Cold oil, cold engine. Damn it was nice to see that gauge rise. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rocking nana.gif) I'm celebrating with cold Chinook ale (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif)
Everything is still go for next Saturday. We're gonna light this sucker off then celebrate. I'll post a map and directions Monday. Dave |

Great!
I like to see atleast 30 PSI on initial spin up. 40 is a good number.... Call me after it fires- you got my number..... |
