Looks good back between the fenders.

 

Yep they are just finishing up before the initial break in and then retuning with the new motor.

 

So cranked her up, got 30 weight break-in oil, for the next 500 miles, but hasn't been about 4000 RPM yet, lots of excel/decal to pull a hard vacuum to seat the rings.

A lot of around town driving, no interstate miles. Once we hit 500 Miles, Clay Bryant at Bryant Brothers Performance in Decatur will be retuning to the new motors liking.

Sounds really good to have her up and purring again. Set off multiple car alarms when it gets cranked because the twin loop makes her really throaty at idle.

Will give video and Dyno pics when we do that next week!

 

Eager to see it! Look forward to all of us getting together when the COVID dies down.

 

Wow...mad skills. Congrats on your impressive motor rebuild.
Where in AL are you? I have a cousin in Mobile, AL.

 

Live in Huntsville, AL currently.

 

So got the 500 break-in miles on her and took her to the dyno. So we started off really safe as Clay of Bryant Brothers Performance in Decatur really refined the Vtec cut in point and the switch between high and low maps.

Once that was done, we started adding more fuel and giving her a little more timing. First pull was 412, Second 426, third 439, more fuel.. more timing, we hit 466 WHP and Clay informed me that we were out of fuel, not because of the injectors, but because the Walbro 255 Didn’t have enough flow. He then hoped in my car and we drove around Decatur and he live tuned my motor for drivability, A/C on, partial throttle exceleration, etc. Really Appreciate Clay taking the time to make her enjoyable during the daily drive too.
Next week putting in a larger fuel pump, and then Clay says we should see what she can really do.

So 466 WHP on break-in oil, running out of fuel on the top side... not a bad start on 93 Octane.
Shooting for 500-510 on 93 octane with some fresh synthetic oil!

 

Wow, congrats. Look forward to seeing on the street!

 

This is great. Ran into similar oil deficiency and also scored 2nd and 3rd cylinder. looking into resleeving as well.

 

Well if you are in the Huntsville, AL area, Bryant Brother Performance did a great job on my rebuild. Going tonight to finalize my Tune as we just installed the larger fuel pump since I was running out of fuel on the topside of my tune.

Chris did a great job on my rebuild. Very through and does the little things to make sure the engine is perfect before the break-in start-up. Joey was the service writer I used during my build process.
