Default finaly started the engine up

yesterday i finally started up my engine after taking it out october. i put a comp cam extreme energy cam flat top pistons and had new valve seats and valves put in. the cylenders were bored 40 over witch gave it 294 cid. after having to get a new fuel pump and shifting the distributor 1 tooth it fired right up. i borrowed the oil presurising priming tak from the machiene shop so my oil pressure came right up and the engine ran good. i had a problem with the h pipe i got so i bolted the muflers straight to the reducers on the headers. it was loud but that cam gave it a good sound. i have to alighn the front end enough so i can drive the car and get that h pipe bent but after that im sure it will do great. thaks all of you for all of your help you have given me over the last few months. i really apreciate it and hopefully i will see on the road
