Is there any way to build up oil pressure and get some flowing before you first crank it over? I imagine these have been sitting for sometime and might need a 'pre-lube' ?

Odd...the cops had a 96-99 MNB pulled over the other day.. for over 2 hours. Seats came out and everything. I'm thinking the MNB guys were in trouble. LOL

Tony... doesn't the back end of your car drag on the ground like a Poodle trying to remove a lump of turd off it'* butt when you hit the gas. Somehow..I'm not worried about ya.

New engine should arrive this evening. I'll get it apart and prepped for cam install.

I like the spark effect when he hits the gas.

And mine drives...long as you keep pushing.

Sparks add to the appeal.....hey it may even become popular among the lowrider crowd. Dont they weld a scrape plate for sparking when they are fully lowered?? lol

and BTW Bill, I hear the new engine is going to be a hybrid? Once the engine fails, your feet automatically kick in??? is this true?? I bet that will drive up your MPG rating!!

Hybrid yes... part Series 2 and part Series 3.

When I am sitting next to you at the starting line at the track, make sure you get a good look.
