    Congrats! Looks clean! Just need to get it tuned, sounds like its running like a boxer engine XD. Is that louder sound the intake? If it is damn that motor has some vacuum. Cant wait to see some power test vids

    Yeah I think that louder noise was coming from a vacum house coming from the intake. It quited down once I let it reach operating temperature. It has some real nice power though. Wohdog put goldtop cams in it. Im gonna have to get it dynoed soon to solve this Blacktop/Goldtop horsepower mystery

    haha thats mean you got it going. doesnbt soubnd like it running too good in the 1st vid you posted but i guess you have new leads on it now and that probably sorted that out.
