Got the ported manis in today,ported,cut rewelded,polished and powdercoated black. So i started on the exhaust and mac came over and we banged it out in baout 7 hours,got it all together and the first start up of the mototr too! It cranked over on the first try and no signs of codes being thrown or bad knocks so far,just a lil eaxhaust leak which i,l hopefully fix tomorrow and then do all the basics of a new mototr build up. Run for a lil bit,coolant,oil,scan and so fourth. Such a big releif now thats it is 90% done.🍺 Thnaks for the help and advice from the ones who helped me out. I owe u guys. Here a ffw pics from today,mac got a lil crazy towards the end of the night though:slap: . I have video but know how to post those. ---
