Well...you read it...13.4's out of the box with pretty much no tune.
It will do much better when I get the parts it wants.
Hey, it's the first engine I ever built and it seems to be a pretty good one that just needs fine tuned.
Yeah I remember but I can't believe it's been that long !!
Very respectable out of the box, and i'm sure you had a lot of fun putting it together. I have no doubt you'll be in the 12's in no time.

The one i'm putting together is still a pile of parts in the garage, so you're way ahead of me ! lol It's actually my son who is funding this one, and he's 22 and has other priorities right now, but his interest is coming back, so i think we'll get started back on it pretty soon hopefully !!
