After 10 months full time labor totaling 1410 hours, my restoration is up and running. . . all new engine started on the first try. . . ran it for 1 hour at 1500 to 2000 to break in the cams and everything else. . One minor oil leak due to my inattention. . , loose oil pressure line I didn't tighten enough during the rebuild. . Idles nicely at 800 and those E cams sure sound nice. .
took it around the block and there is nothing sweeter than the sound of Webbers right next to your head. . can't wait to get it aligned and take it for a real drive. .
and, yes those are my real plates. . I prop the Calif plate in the rear window when on the road. .
