It's Alive...

Got it all together (surprisingly little foul language), cranked it for about 20 seconds, and it fired right up. Now if I can just find a drivers seat, I can take it out on the road.

Get a seat... You'll not only look like any idiot if you get pulled over but the cop will surely treat you like one.

It's not all that clean, but it's getting there, and it won't be stock for long (hopefully)...

So you built it from the ground up or something along those lines?

How come you didnt go straight into the modifications?

Looks good though. Congrats.

Bought it with a totally worn out motor (smoking bad), immediately put it on stands, rebuilt it, and wanted to make sure my work "worked" before adding changes. Next will be a battery relocate, radiator, v-mount, and dual oil-coolers, all on the "stock" motor. If I'm not totally beat-down by then, I'll start building another motor with a little more power. I think I need to get a life...
