I loaded mine 1st, no problems. The air bleeds out pretty easily. We did mine with it just idling for about 10-15mins and topped off the res. I drove it around for awhile and rechecked it and it took very little to top off. I also ran the heater for a few mins to make sure everything was flowing and working correctly there. Its sounds like its almost test ride time!!!!!!!!!!!

I just finished extending all the wiring and I'm about to install the MAF housing, filter and intake tube. The delivery man just dropped off the UPR belt tensioner. Just in time too!

Ok thanks! I'll let it warm up first before opening the bleed screw.

Thanks guys! I still need to add coolant, s/c oil and bleed the system. I was going to install a fuel riser block for the fuel pressure gauge but one of the bolts snapped. I didn't even torque it that hard. Cheap bolt! Guess I won't be installing the fuel pressure gauge yet. Another thing is that it doesn't look like it's going to fit with the intake tube being so close to the fuel pressure sender. How did you guys get a fuel riser block to fit under there?

I'm going to start installing the A/F and boost gauge now. After that I'll add the coolant, etc..
