Looks like a real torque monster! I recognize that grin and the "here we go!". I am pretty sure that all of us V8 guys have enjoyed that first rumbling start and goosing the throttle thinking we have the world by the a$$. Congrats, buddy; welcome to "the club".

Yeah, especially since I just had to pull the intake because of a water leak. But, the problem was found and fixed.... chalk it up to the idiot spinnin' the wrenches (me) not double checking things like he should have.
