Congrats on the motor....it is a sweet feeling to fire it up & have all green at run in.

Enjoy your new toy!

Thanks guys!

I was pumped last night when I fired her up in the ol garage.....No engine light...no nothing yet. It sounds smooth(stock cams) and deep/loud even with the exhaust on. I let it run for about twenty minutes and gave it a couple quick revs.......the fast throttle response was very noticable and revs even faster....gotta love a 4-1/8 stroke crank!

I going to take it off the jack stands today after I fill the zf back up with some fluid(thanks Uly for the fluid advice)!

Exhaust back on, but still a little dusty from a year of sitting in my garage...it was worth it!

I have a new Sony camera, but can't figure out how to take the video yet...time to read the instructions I guess!

Great looking LT5 in a great looking Quasar Blue. I like the blue Samco's with the blue car. I may have to get a set of those for mine.

In the early photos I noticed you still had the secondary vacum reservoir. Did you leave the secondary throttle plates in?

Nice looking motor. I'm sure it will be strong as well.

Secondarys are all gone, but I wasn't sure what to or what not to remove some I just pluged the canistser vacum tubing off. I saw that the reserboir fed a few other things aswell, but it runs fine with no lights flashing at me....so I guess it's right...lol!
