Re: FED with killer Flathead
Finally
 We fired up the killer today two years of waiting really paid off after sorting some issues out.Sorry noe video guys  Put a brand new videocamera on charging yesterday, but when i woke up to go to the garage, some had pulled the plug. Ater some detective work, we have come to the conclution that the big Cat had messed with the cables! . But I will post some videos from the track next weekend  !We had some issues with the set-up, as the engine ran too fat. We leanded it out, and Roger made some andjustments, and THEN IT CAME TO LIFE ! Really soundes wicked, never heard a Flathead sound like this!I'll keep you posted on the progress !Br Kjell ..............................

Re: FED with killer Flathead
Well guy's we got to the track, unloaded the dragster and when't straight to work
! Last sunday's start-up gave us alot to work with.But as we didn't get to run her, we really din't get the set-up as we should have. Stance and function is something I wanted to do something about, so we got a new set of slicks to fit the 16 inch AR magnesium rims. I really like the look now!? The barrelvalve has seen better days, will not work as we like, so it tends to get really rich at idle. After tweeking all weekend, by leaking some fuel back at the barrelvalve (secondary) it really sounds good. Atleast something to work with. At the video above it was too rich. In this video it's too lean !But i think it sound better !Big thanks to Roger, Tor and all of you who got me to do this !http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jShX5...ature=youtu.be We didn't get much tracktime, really just once !But we will be back !Br Kjell .....................................

Re: FED with killer Flathead
Yep she does sound a little fat but thats what driving is for, great job Kjell and crew, she really does sound crisp though and with a few more runs under your belt looks like you will be happy!
Congrats again on a job well done!!!!
