What was wrong with priming the oil? When i did mine. The pump was already primed from builder. I pulled fuse and relay and turned it over for a while until it was good an primed through the blocked and then fired it up. No problems.

I found more cut wires that I fixed. I found my short on my turn signals.........I need to check out my c101 plug for correct connections.

I also got my H35-24 clone back on the road. It been sitting year plus. I need to install a 188 427lsd and a Mason e30 lower X brace. Here is a link.

I do not drive on free way. I drive it in windy roads. I have used a 410lsd on s38 for 18 years. I love it... I have tried 373lsd. I did not like it, because it did not rev up motor quick on windy roads.

Good to hear these cars are on the road, or close to being driven. Must feel good to finally have a chance to drive them.
Wiring is so much fun:(.
Love to see the video too...

I remember the first start being a nail biter due to the length of time for the oil pump to prime. I spun it without plugs and ended up putting some thicker ( Marvel Mystery?) oil in the filter housing and it still took a while. I read that some people pack the pump with something like Vaseline for the first start.

I am glad to hear you aren't afraid to push these old beast motors.

I am not afraid to push the old school ride......
