Congrats but what is that "saw like" sound? Sounds like something is rubbing...

 

Agreed. That sounds horrible. Hopefully it's just crappy audio quality on the vid.

 

OMG those bikes have organ donor written all over them! Please be careful. I know you’re a person with a reasonable control over your emotions. However from reading your posts, I believe there is a yin to the yang and a hothead resides just below the surface.

 

power steering pump...all new lines, can etc.... had to prime pump...it gets better later in the video...tune today or tomorrow...that was 1st startup.

 

U mean these donorcycles? LOl!

 

I hope you tune that car out and get to drive the car that has been stuck in one garage or another for probably the past half decade

 

lol...NO, 3 yrs ONLY!!!! I have the bikes so Im good, car or not!

 

[QUOTE so Im good, car or not![/QUOTE]

good luck, keep us posted.

 

sure....

 

picks posted now...

 

car was started 4 weeks ago..still waiting on tune..... in the meantime, I'll keep riding' that donorcycles (Jenifer)..LOL

 

I can hear the guys talking about it in the background... I can't make it out though.

I'm sure it's like apples to dinosaurs when I say that my first start didn't sound anything like that- but that vid did sound pretty... ummmm...

Do fluids just need to circulate? Everything just adjusting?

I wonder... is it possibly some sort of resonance through that custom plenum? (Or is that the kinetix?)

It looks amazing Oog- but... it doesn't sound right and I got the impression from the conversation in the background that they didn't think so either.


And that one front photo- what's up with that D side air filter? Looks like it's smashed?

 

it was the power steering pump..needed the fluid circulated by moving steering wheel AL TO R......they tell me it revs really quickly with the lightened crankshaft....

 

I should have known that- I recognize it now from when my PSF reservoire was leaking consistently and the levels were getting low.

 

That is Fu_king ridiculous

How do they justify that??

 

oil leak, dyno down etch etc..... SUPPOSED to have numbers today..don't hold ur breath... LOL..its become comical.... glad I got the 2 bikes... back to my original passion...

 

Does Tim do the tuning there?

I would have to park one of my current/past/or past past wives there to intimidate the guys into getting it done. All very mean ladies......

between you and that triligy dude......some hard to swallow bull crap.

Good luck and I hope you get as much enjoyment out of your results as I have mine!!

 

yea Tim does the tuning.... tried yelling, threatening to ship to jtran, offered bonus $ to hurry up for 1.5 yes... nothing worked so I quit stressing myself, gave up and bought a couple of aportbikes to give me my adrenalin fix...I enjoy the bikes so much that the car doesn't bother me anymore...just hate to hear BE excuses like I'm an idiot.....

a few more stainless pieces to make and I'm done.


wanted roll bar, seats, t400 but I'm tired of being jerked off, so......

 

Don't forget Hal at Dynosty.......dude is a Bad-a$$ tuning Machine!

But your in Cali aren't you? Imagine Hal might enjoy a trip to DinyLand (eddie murphy voice)
