[QUOTE]Originally posted by AIRFORMANCE MOBILE AUTO A/C 707: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by East Bay 50: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by WildFire532FB: [qb] OK i started it, Its nasty like a top fuel dragster! I don't know how i am not going to get a ticket driving this thing on the road. Haven't been able to break in the cam though its a flat tappet cam and you have to rev the motor up to 2k to 3k never keeping it constant. The first start up some plastic above my header melted and caught fire then we found a shit load of water leaks, one leak we even thought was oil but it turns out to be coolant running from the front of the motor to the back. I just came in from our second attempt at getting the cam broken in and my dad told me to shut it off cause the headers were GLOWING red, i got out and looked and they were. Its not timed and died right when i let off the gas. (I was told to fuck the timing just break in the cam before doing anything) We've found that our water leak is our Meznere electric water pump, its leaking from a hole in the bottom of the pump :( So tomorrow we're going to take it off and see what it is and hope the pump is still under warranty, it has the same looking hole on the top of the pump as well so no idea why its leaking. I DO have a video and i will post it in an hour or so. [/qb][/QUOTE]The headers were glowing red? wtf would cause it to do that? [/qb][/QUOTE]timing off [/QB][/QUOTE]
