  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    Finally got around to firing up the 455 transplant.. primed the pump and got around 55-60 pressure.. looked good and went for it.. just ran for a few seconds but so far so good. Tomorrow I'll hook up proper fuel supply and let it get up to temp.

    Got it a few years ago. Came out of a skylark dont recall the year. Bought it along with another freshly machined 70s block 455, with everything needed to get it together minus heads.. my back up when the time comes.
