It is alive!!!! Finally! Had a little trouble getting it to fire up for the first time. Thanks to Eric (WisconsinHick1) for helping me log it to make sure everything was working correct and Mark (Danville) for some new tunes and great customer support!:thumb:

I had to end up giving it a little shot of ether to get it going, but now starts fine on its own. Also part of the problem was that my Fuelab lift pump I have was for a Cummins so the pressure is set at 18psi, which I knew. But I didn't think it would effect the motor starting. I thought it would just idle like crap. I have an external Fuelab regulator I will regulate the pressure down.

Here's a crappy video of the start up. Only ran for a few seconds, because the cooling system is not hooked up yet.

I have the dodge pump too. I was gonna put a boost reference regulator on it. But I didn't install it in time and I ended up cutting the spring so I could idle without coding at a pull lol
