This week we fired the Vortec 4.2 race engine for the Black Opel team in prep for Bonneville using megasquirt and Ford EDIS for the ignition system. Once we sorted out the firing order the engine fired on the second try.
Within 10 min's we had the idle fuel dialed in.
A day later we headed to the dyno and got the mid range dialed in enough to do a full pull. We got 1 full pull in before mechanical gremlins came to pay a visit.

We'll be ready for the Oct. meet.
