This is what every builder of his first engine wants to see:

The head is back on with a new gasket, and the sealant is curing. It'll being running after some odds and ends tomorrow night.

It was pretty impossible to get a consistent torque on the head bolts, but I think'll hold till I get on it again :)

I'll let you guys know if I fork something up before the weekend.

I might have to put this off.

My grandfather just went to the hospital with chest pains.

I'll know more later today - hopefully.

Yeah, let's try to work it to get Steve to come over and give us rides.

I will take donations for gas......
I should get done at about 5 it will take me an hour to get in there...

Dave

Give me your address with ZIP code for mapping software...

I am also thinking that Sunday the 19th 1 PM go to Byron to see how this thing is running

I can only run about 16 - 18 lbs of boost, and only to 5 K rpm.

I need to redo fuel sys for -8 line bigger pumps and stuff.
BUT it should run STRONG....

I just adjusted the valve lash and took the Syclone for a spin around the block....maybe I got the water jacket sealed up correctly this time.

Anyhow, Im going to try to come up this weekend. I can deliver my condolences to Dave in person if he's not up for beer n' brats.

Hey Dave-

Long time no talk, life has been a killer as of late. I'm glad to hear your G'pa is ok. Next time we get this gathering rescheduled I'd love to come out and see everybody. After seeing Seth's Syclone this summer....I'd love to see it running.
