Its Alive!

Well everyone, it runs again! We replace the waterpump housing and tested again for water leaks...............dry as a desert! The came the fuel system check ..........leaked like a fountain. Repaired all the leaks and hit the starter button. FIRED ON THE 1ST CRANK! We had it running for about a hour and a half, it sounds so crisp, ahhhhhhhhhhh the sound of a brideport. Now all we need is a dry day with warmer temps and we can take it the dyno for a break in run. YAHOO!!!

Thanks for all the replies and well wishes. We will be doing a lot of testing before our 1st race this year. Our season doesnt start until May so we have lots of time. FYI the car is supposed to be in this months edition of Inside Track so if you get a copy check it out! I might have a set of 225/50ZR15 Kumho V710's for sale, they would be perfect for Solo I or 2
