  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    Got the engine up and running, the engine was on a homemade test stand sitting in the back of a trailer running through 1991 corvette mufflers, but it was sounding pretty good! Hopefully dropping the engine back in here in the next few months and then being able to work through it.

    Just ordered a new fuel pump and am considering running a new line while the engine is out but otherwise we're making some progress!
