(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) I just got my fuel pump TODAY and I will be starting the SIX up ASAP. I would like to here some tip/thoughts on;
- How long should I run it
- What RPM

I installed new rings, had some top end work done, rebuilt the webers..etc

I am hoping it will fire right up but who knows? The carbs are more then likely not dialed in but should be close, timing will be close (I set it at TDC).

Once it is started should I immediately start tuning it? Timing and then the carbs? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif)

Should I stop it to check the plug color to make sure I am not running too lean/rich?
