With the engine not running, that is normal. Start it up and test it again.
You can Modify that box to make it better but, you cannot eliminate it, because the boost control valve needs some rotation to activate the Power-Piston.
The Georgia place sold in 5 weeks. Felt like a long time to us as we moved into a short term rental in Florida and still paid our mortgage!!!
But 5 weeks is good. Here in the Florida panhandle houses priced fairly are sold in days!!
Thanks Steve. One more piece to go and we'll be settling in will be cliser to complete. We close on our house here this Friday. Then I'll have one more trip to Georgia get the rest of our household goods.
Also changed my pinion angle today .
Pinion was up 10* and trany was up 2* ..wtf ?????? Pretty sure beer was involved in that . Lol
I got the pinion to 2* down and installed an adjustable snubber .
We will see how she drives now . Might have to tweek the angles a bit more .
Good news. Cut all the unused wires out of the factory harness, rewrapped it, reinstalled, and the car still managed to start when done. I must not have accidentally cut out anything important!
I'm pretty happy with how the install is turning out to look. I'm excited to get to drive it again soon.
What do you pay?
I have Comcast, dropped the TV service, started reasonable, now close to a hundred a month. Fiber has come in starting at 25 a month with a year contract. But we know how that will go with legal mumbo jumbo fine print.
Internet, TV, and landline; $165C per month. Yeah I'm retired too, and I feel it; so, I farm out my skills, for eggs, milk, and bread.
I don't smoke nor drink, and my hotrod is parked, so, we're getting by.
My .557 lift purpleshaft cammed 70 340 was built with 273 rockers on the X heads - I seem to recall some minor machining was done by my engine builder but it's been 40 years
I’ve been a similar situation although MUCH smaller scale. Where I had a guy build an engine with mostly my supplied parts. I didn’t ask him his rate, how much he thought it would cost or anything like time ect. I knew I could trust him and this was at the top of my list. Like they say...

I was thinking more than 1 account at same time. Superdouche changed due to being banned.

Cut all the now unused wires out of the factory harness, rewrapped it with the non-adhesive vinyl like original, and reinstalled. I believe engine bay wiring is now complete.
Hope to get the grill and lights back in tomorrow night.
