Talking OMG! It STARTS!

But
It sounds like hell - probably due to the fact that it doesn't have oil pressure yet... Yes I did some cranking beforehand.

And... it runs for about 2 seconds before dying. It has a massive fuel leak from one of the fuel line connections.

Good job Bradley!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The noise is the extra bolts on top of the pistons..................

And, the leak will take care of itself, just pull the nearest plug wire off and lay it below the leak.

ps... move it out of the garage, and away from the 951 before you start it again.

Hah, at least your car is nice enough to leave 'little' dots... LOL
My driveway looks like the Exxon Valdez stopped over for a pit stop...

Either way, car runs nice Still not completely together, and still doesn't have 4 wheels on it. But it starts! lol.
