It's alive!!!
Well after having some issues with my car for the last few months, i stepped away from it and decided not to bother with it until my nerves were calm once again so I went back to work, fixed the fuel issues and a couple other things and I finally started her up tonight. One of neighbours came out after he heard it and seemed to enjoy the loud sound. The walls were shaking in my garage and it was rather pleasant :reddevil. Only issue now is the right blinker doesn't flash so I'll have to figure out what's up with that but that's a small issue. I'm so excited, I can't even describe it.

Awesome! :cheers:
Not sure about the blinker. On Fords, that is a sure sign that the bulb is out, but on my Vette, most non-blinking blinker problems have been due to a bad ground.

I know what it's like to turn the key, hear that motor roar, and throw your head back and yell "IT'S ALIVE !!" loud enough to scare the neighbors.
