    Systems up

    Well the snowstorm that’s coming tomorrow is screwing up my plans to go kart this weekend. Most systems are up. Cooling system is filled and purged. Differential is filled, friction modifier and gear oil. Electrical is up and the Holley sniper is online. Fuel system pressure tested, and there is five Gallons of high test in the tank. Tomorrow night we fill the transmission and the shims I got from Mike Forte to get the driveshaft into alignment. Rough alignment is done. Brakes are bled and pedal is firm and high. I’ll pull it out of the garage this weekend, and fire it up. I’ll drive it as soon as thre roads are clear and dry.
