Yes mate. Just got back. Have an issue with the pan mods I did, as the drain back hole above the pick up is not enough and we run out of oil above 5700rpm. We will rectify though.

I am so happy with the results today, oil issues aside, we made 4 runs to 5700rpm before we decided to stop as it wanted more fuel and spark.

When we first fired it up he said the air/fuel was of the scale, so he changed the air bleeds and then the jets.

He got it where he was happy to start making some pulls.

First pull was to 5500rpm, 30' total advance, made 730hp and 750ft/lb torque.

Here is that clip

The rest was to start putting more fuel into it and run it up to 6000rpm. This is when we found the oil issue. And stopped making changes, as we tried to locate the problem.

All that aside, this motor is so smooth in its attitude, where previously I thought it was really cranky. Bill said this will pull nice and smooth off idle on the street.

Cheers
