lol, she's alive!!! i cranked her today and she slowly came alive (forgot to set the 850cc primaries in the PFC)

i desperately need her tuned, but i drove 20miles today more to come tomorrow after i get a 45 degree oil cooler fitting so my steering rack isn't pinching it

anyways, yay!!!

okay, i got the oil cooler fitting and figured out that my richness might be due to a primary injector insulator that i didn't install

will fix tomorrow (ray crowe is overnighting it) and update you guys on the status

I guess you're one of the reasons why my motor took so damn long to build?? That motor looks AMAZING, hopefully mine will look the same! Should be getting it tommorow, I got the stage 3 oil mods w/ loopline, upgraded waterseals, 2 piece 3mm ceramic seals (ohhhh yeah), and a custom L.S.P. with low overlap at idle. I can't wait for this bad boy to arrive!

Btw, my name's Jason, do you think they were referring to me when they mentioned "Jason's port"? haha. I know when I was talking to Rob he mentioned the Kyle Bacon (Nocab72)'s "Bacon Buster" port If so, I hope the idle is nice and subtle Also, why did you go with the stage 1 oil mods instead of the stage 3?

None of the old pics are showing. Any pics of the new/replaced Gothom Racing engine installed?
