finally got my engine together and hit the key fired right up not even a full crank made my day. One heater hose leak and the temp guage isnt working yet (probably bad connection) were the only problems. New exhaust was shipped today brake rotors and pads arrived (front on) just need to bolt on hood and install new windshield and I will take my first ride. Can't wait
