The engine runs!

hard to believe but we finally got there...

[@graemelliott3942]

Running pretty smoothly! Congratulations! Always a good feeling when a new my rebuilt engine is first started🎉

[@ronkluwe4875]

Sounds good Steve. Tappets sounded like they definitely need adjusting and it also sounds a bit rich (splashy exhaust). You will be on the road soon!

A great landmark Steve well done. Your way of doing the dash install looks a lot easier than the four hours I’ve spent on my back in the footwell.

[@stevegnome]

Absolutely is! I've had to do a few things since taking it off the rotator and oh the pain!

[@stuartwright9148]

Almost drive time Steve!

Hope you are using a high zinc oil for running in.

[@stevegnome]

I am!

Onya Steve.@@stevegnome
