She runs!

You may be thinking that the race is coming up pretty soon and you haven't even seen the Camaro run.  Well we have fixed that problem!  Behold the beauty that is small block Chevy power!

Yes, this past week, Kevin managed to get the engine installed into the car.  Good job bro!  I drove up for the weekend and worked with Kevin to hook everything up and continue to work on all the little things.  There is so much to do and I feel like we are falling behind.  But Saturday night we both felt a little better just to fire her up and hear her roar.  And does she roar!  There's nothing quite like the sound of a V8 open header.

Like I said we knocked off some other items as well while I was there.  Gauges got installed, but they are not wired yet.  Brake lights: complete.  Battery box: complete.  Tranny cooler: complete.  And there were a few other little items as well.

So T minus 31 days and where do we stand?  Uhhhh, we need tires, first of all.  Then there is the list of other tasks that still need to be completed.  Hood, bleed brakes (again), wire gauges, and a couple of other things. Like the exhaust, for which I need to tow the car down to Charlotte to have a friend install it for me.  Nothing like the pressure of last minute work!  I'll keep you posted.
