Well the car is no longer a static model. looks like some traces on the relay board got hot at some point in its life. The outboard fuse tabs are very soft but after some tweeking we got power to the CDI connector and turned the key today (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) Still needs some tuning and sync the carbs but it so close to a drive around the block (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Absolutely killer bud! So good to see that motor running. Can't wait for the next video of you (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) . Projects this big seem to never have an end in sight. You must be smiling from ear to ear. Are you going to bring it to Tahoe next month for WCR?

Well the tuning is done adding a few more deg. of timing and I drove the car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) and it's amazing!!! Pulls like crazy and feels so planted not to mention the SOUND (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif)

I now know why many have raved about a 901 build by Thomas, The shifting was tight and smooth (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) I'm on a high like no other and charging my GoPro for tomorrow to post some video. cant wait!!! Still have a few electrical issues but nothing big. Dead short in the wiper motor and turn signal issues.

Beautiful... That thing is a work of art! After looking at the last few pages and the photos.... Is your trans painted or powder coated?

Have you got some miles on it yet? Curious if you notice any issues with a painted/coated trans with regard to heat?

Thanks man, your car sounds awesome too..

Steve
