Wow long time since I updated this thread. Lots has happened, some good some bad lol. So the original dyno day was the 13th of July, go the car there and Lee upon listening to it start said it sounded like I was low on compression in a couple cylinders. He was right and it turned out I was without compression on two cylinders and one was 30 psi so needless to say no tuning that day. I should have known there was an issue but with everything being completely new and not having driven or listened to the car in three years I just didn't. In my defence the car drove smooth for the most part and gave no real symptoms of severe misfire. But alas the engine had to come back out to go to my builder to see what was wrong.
Williams (my engine builder) figured out that tolerance stackup in the valve train was causing some to hang open so the valves needed shortened. He took all the valves out and put them in middle of spec for length and had the engine back to me in two weeks. Couldn't say enough good things about how Williams handled the entire deal and stood behind his work by fixing everything and not charging me a dime for labor. I had him put in new head gaskets, even though mine had only 500 miles on them, for added insurance which I paid for the gaskets.
Fast forward to today and the cars back together with a couple changes. New tune appointment is scheduled for Sept. 26th. I replaced all the fragola fittings and lines that I couldn't get to seal in the cooling system with aeroquip and also ditched the factory expansion tank for a s197 tank.
Also took the car for a test drive to make sure it's leak free and man does it drive 1000x better than before, and before I thought it drove well. Didn't have time to wash the car but took some pictures anyways, 1. because the car was leak free and such a nice day and 2. for this months ROTM lol.
