Funny, i posted earlier and barely hit enter and John was calling me on the phone...

 

Man, you guys sure got a lot done in only a few posts

"It's alive"

What was with the smoke out of the engine at the end though? Is that normal?

 

The "smoke" was actually a little bit of residual steam because there is almost no coolant in the system...if you notice there is no hose on the upper radiator neck as we are still figuring out that area. The initial startup for it's short term doesn't raise temps enough to worry about but it created that little puff of steam due to residual coolant on the hotter internal areas....so nothing to worry about there .

 

Ok good! And I've now learned something for today

 

awesome!!!

and gasp! paul on video

 

yeah, and not on the hood of a II or passed out with sharpie all over me

 

I WAS NEVER BOTH OF THOSE AT THE SAME TIME!
