Exactly.

My video is over 2 hours long, no need to watch mine to learn more about the device. I would watch the other video that was posted. My video was just showing what I had to do to install on my Newport.

hahahahahah, I knew that was coming about the scissors and you hear me say someone is going to give me crap about it. LOL! But yes, you run a little rich and let this lean it out. So far its been helping me just keep an eye on things, its pretty slick.

Right! So far im loving it and its help me out a ton!

Hi everyone, Some of you may know Thunderhead289 on YouTube. He has been making Timing and Carb tuning videos for years. Well him and a friend have developed what they call the Carb Cheater. I was able to get a beta of the system and install it on my 73 Newport. Its basically a metered...

I bought a new cap from 440 source and while its up on a rack, I am just going to replace the cap and bottom part of the seal to be on the safe side.

I ended up having the car towed to another shop, they already pulled the trans and checking it out. While it was up on the rack, I took a look at a leak I have at the back of the engine, I guess I should have filled up the rear main seal cap screws holes with silicone as you can see that the...

To me those plugs looked like it was running rich, I do a have fuel pressure regulator on it and turned it down from 7.5ish to 5psi. Im running a Holley 650

I have to wait to Wednesday to speak to my trans shop so until then, I am getting things buttoned up in case I need to tow it. I remove the filter and pulled a couple plugs to see what everything looks like. The darker of the 2 plugs is piston #1 and the other is #4. I have only completed...

Yeah I am feeling the same. The shop that rebuilt did give me a 10k mile/6 month warranty. Problem is that I will have to pull it back out. The other weird thing is the neutral safety switch. The reverse lights don't light. If pop off the cable and jump the outside 2 wires, they light up...

I did that yesterday, I left it run in neutral for about 5 mins and then tried all gears while giving it some gas. Nada If I jack up the rear and test with some gas, the wheels do move slowly but dont speed up when more gas pedal is added.

@65sporty, I just got done testing, without running, fluid was pretty far up the stick. Started her up and popped into neutral and the level was down between full and add. I didn't let it run long enough to warm up though. But I assume this means the pump is fine?

Hey Thanks @65sporty, Ill check that in the morning. I'm sure it was seated all the way, as I never took off the bracket the builder installed to keep it in place until it was right before the time to put the bell housing bolts in. There was a very small gap between the TC and the flexplate...

HOOORRRRAAAYYYY! After a stressful start up, the break in process has been completed. Here is a quick video of the first start after the break was done. Only issue I have at the moment is with the trans. I did have it rebuilt during the rebuilding of the engine. I was able to get 8 1/2...

Well tomorrow is the day. I think I am all set to try and get her fired up. I will be filming this as well and will post the video after.

Getting closer! It should be ready tomorrow but I am trying to wait till this weekend to fire it up.

I didnt get to post yesterday because it was a LONG day. However... TADA! I still have plenty to go and be ready for break in but im moving. I am hoping to break it in by this weekend.

I forgot to show how the front was... LOL

Well today was a good day to put things together! I got the Trans in and most of the engine built. I got some oil in it and tested pressure, I was getting 80psi with just the drill. Oil came out of everywhere it was supposed to!

Quick update, I was able to sand the pins just a little got the heads to sit perfect. I got them all installed. I do want to say thanks to everyone that is helping along the way and also a special shoutout to @1970FuryConv, thank you sir! Here are some updated pics from the build.
