If I didn't have to go to work every stinking day I could get this running. Just need to grind block for adapter clearance, install accumulator, prime oil, install plugs and a few more little details.

Alright you two:noway:

Whats the real answer Jim? Then after you get it all dialed in and hooking what do you think you will be running. Can you take a passenger with you for a ride along. If so Im first inline:D:yes:

I would also like to ride in Darryl's wheelie machine:yes:

I'm thinking that it should go 9.5x first time out. Once dialed in it should go 9.2x
Sorry, no passenger seat.
