First start success with my 302!

[allpau2thou]

Started my project in Nov 2011. Been putting whatever time and money I can spare into it and today with the help of TRS I started the motor for the first time!

Found quite a few kinks that need to be worked out... was leaking fuel in a couple spots. My remote oil filter was leaking. Still need to have a driveshaft made. And still have to put the floor shifter in and hook up the linkage. But all together hearing that baby start up was music to my ears

Thanks again TRS! Here is a link to some video of the first start:

Looks good. Cant wait to get mine done. What do you plan on using for a rear driveshaft?

Always a great feeling when you put all that time into it, and you can hear it work. Sounds great......
