Got it broke in. i put a couple down pipes and did a temporary connection of the 2 Dynomax Turbo mufflers and I am pleased w/the sound. Not to loud but will bark when i want them to.
The engine ran very good with no unusual sounds. Couldn't get a good reading on the vacuum gauge as it didn't want to idle down. The carb did great at mid range & WOT but the accelerator and idle circuits have problems. I may just get another. When I set it by ear and shut it down and restarted it, the timing light shows the BB advanced alomost to the edge of the hole. When i'd retard back the engine would start running rough. I figure I'm going to have to run that 264 3/4 cam alittle advanced so I may make some small advance graduation marks on the flywhjeel. I'd be researching that.
and last but not least that blamed side cover leaked with the new cork gasket and Super 300 sealer.
It was much worse than the Best Gasket gasket so I'll be ordering another and check that cover for trueness. It may get replaced by a chrome one, more HP you know

All in all it started and ran pretty good and theres no chunks of metal or differing colored swirls in the breakin oil I drained afterwards.
I believe it's gonna do.

P.S. sorry no pics or videos, got too busy and didn't even think about it. '
