As i've used half a tank of fuel already. (that's what the gauge says anyway) I'm going to make some comments.
ATM my ears are ringing because now it's much deeper sound and more droning (might be the cams) It never droned bad.
The idle is insane.. Turns heads.. Sounds like it should be on the track (Thanks patrick for that recommendation
)
The cam, Well how do i explain it, For normal people, it's not really street-able because it doesn't like anything below 2200 rpm. When i hit boost, ~7 psi it feels so much more powerful. On 7 Psi it'll probably eat a standard 951.
The clutch (the big one) As i expected it chatters, but i needs time to be broken in, it takes a little to get use to.. I'll comment more after i drive it for a month. it's bare able. I can crawl up my driveway which is quite steep.
Idle is a little right, i'll data log that later on when i have broken the rings in.

Can you adjust idle control valve? You can play with that and with the mixture to get better idle. Thats what i did. i never played with the screw on the TB.

I think Paul installed the steam vent kit, if so he should not need to continually bleed it. At least that is my understanding, correct me if wrong.

I've got 2 mufflers on it. Haven't touched it. Unless I was use to it.
I figure the heat, its not over heating. It staying at the first line now. I've bled it, but I'm thinking its 2 reasons.
1, because the engine is new and tight there's more load and heat
2, the weather has been hot for a past 3 weeks having 80 degree F and 90 degree F days.

Pauly. I had some weird heating issues with mine when I first got it running.
Combination of bleeding and wonky thermostat. It seems to take longer to bleed than one would think.
Sounds great and congrads on getting it together.

Thanks shawn!
Thanks mate! I think i need a little more to go. the temp now sits on the bottom line where it usually sits.
Really? that was a smooth idle to tell you the truth, it rougher most of the time. I'll have to get a video when it's real rough. sounds mean.
Because the oil is semi synthetic and so i've heard synthetic oils are so slippery that it wont break in the rings or bearings.

That thing sounds lumpy mean now Paulyy. I pity those poor little tyres! Soon it will be time to get you into some bigger wheels/tyres...suspension, brakes...etc...;-)
