It surprised me, lit on the 1 st. turn, wasn't ready for that!!!! Ran it for 15 min. to break in the cam after intial start, but it got up to 230 F only had a house fan blowing on rad. & it didn't have enough "wind' to cool it!!!! Hope to move it under it's own "power" after I get the brakes bled, & pedals back in, then "Molly Maid" the shop.

Excellent! Sounds and looks great, Pete.

And firing on first turn of the crank is a real bonus, eh?

Plus ... assuming you have progressive linkage, run on 2BBL of the rear carb when being 'mild' (conserve that expensive petrol, eh?) then PUNCH IT and all 8BBL open when 'wild' biggrin
