Finally the Motor is in the Truck and running...still needs 500 miles of break-in but it RUNS!:)
Had some problems with misfires in one cylinder...after I found out it was the No. 1 Cylinder that had a bad spark wire or spark plug I decided to replace both of it, just to make sure.
Luckily I brought a new set of MSD Superconductor wires with me from my last US vacation this month.
I also added the following parts to the Motor:
- Goodyear Gatorback Poly-V Serpentin Belt
- MSD Ignition 6421 - MSD 6AL-2 Ignition Box
- MSD Ignition 8223 - MSD Blaster 3 Ignition Coil
- Fel-Pro Performance Molded Silicone Rubber Valve Cover Gaskets
I also finished the True Dual 2,5" Flowmaster 50 Deltaflow Exhaust and 2 QTP electric cutouts which dump right before the real axle into 2 turndowns.
The sound came out just the way I like it!!!! I might route the pipes over the axle in
the future but I'm not sure yet.
