Took it for a first drive
Got the tranny fluid in and the crank pulley on and took her for a spin. Shes runnin kinda rough for some reason, i hear the valves clattering, so i need to pull the covers back off and adjust em a bit. She drove pretty good tho. I also have some coolant seepin out of where the heater pipe goes into the lower intake, prolly just needs a bit of rtv. Should have all my issues figured out soon. I'll post up another exhaust clip too, she sounds much better when it was warm.

I'm takin off the valve covers and going to adjust the valves again. Hopefully i just got em too tight or too loose. Someone told me today that i need to adjust the rockers when its warm so the liftesr are expanded all the way, any truth to this ?
