Welcome! Don't you love how easy it is to drop the engine / tranny out the bottom of the car

What did you dyno or run w/ the setup before?

That should be a lot of fun. I don't think my heart has ever raced as much as it did the first time I started my engine back up after working on it. I remember watching the oil pressure gauge just hoping it would come up. Luckly it did and now the cars a beast.
