Default finally started the beast (motor)

Short video. Dont have the water system hooked up yet so i cant run it for too long just about 2 min tops at this time then i have to cool it off for about an hr. The ignition kicked on the rev limiter so thats why it sounds like its cutting out. Gonna grab something better tomorrow since i fixed the ignition issue.

Gonna try to bring the idle down to 1000 later on as well was idling around 1400.

Sounds mean.............. but whoever is filming really needs to take some lessons. I could've shot a better vid if I had the camera dangling from a rope.

Oh yeah definitely digital being a data logger lol it surprises me how well that data logger fits too, it looks like it was meant to be. Sounds great I just want to see it run.
