nope, not running yet. Still out here in Fallon Nevada attending Top Gun Ground School.

Thanks Richard & Rex, I'll assess the situation this weekend and see where/what I may need in the way of help.

I'm hoping to have the blower cleaned, assembled, and installed this Sunday......Get all those parts/pieces off my bench and give me a little more working room. After that Joe and myself need to get a schedule together to finish up the wiring harness.
I also have my list of bolts I need to order and other misc parts; not much, but I will need an assortment of fuel system fittings/hoses.

Glad to see you today. Just give me a yell when you want to start on the wiring again.

Things are actually slowing down a little for me. I will have some down time for the next couple of weeks until I order the heads, rockers and push rods from WCCH along with all the new gaskets and early LS2 timing gears.

I smell the aroma of progress...

I think you need to plan an "It's Done!" party. I'll be there. We need a West Coast party once a year after it cools off to hook up and place names to faces...

Keep us posted grippy!
