Looking great.
Hopefully the only issue that could occur that may impede your "slow start" is not breaking that motor open to check / verify condition, integrity, etc..

I already did.. when I see a beat up toyota pickup dropping my engine off thats laying on its side in the bed of the truck.. I tore the bottom end down and checked and retorqued everything. everything was hand tight along with two wrong main bearings. so I fixed that real quick. plus I shimmed the oil pump. so its good to go.

shit its only my legal purposes only motor anyways. so I should be fine.

The tittie icon is called The Happy Dance and I'm sure you'd get more if you posted pictures up soon.

Pair of ST sway bars installed a few days ago.

the reason for this very slow build is because I been couching it at my moms for a few months now getting money together for a new place to live. finally came up on one that required a 1,000 down deposit.. its a 1 bed apartment. but this is what I been needing. so hopefully I can get back on my build. I got a bike to build also so need to put money in that as well.
