Yea, the Super 10 is alive! Spun over couple of times and fired right up.

Sounds great, just like a real racer. Everything is looking good. No oil or fluid leaks, oil pressure as expected, idles good, throttle is sharp. Did a valve lash check after running about 5 mins, all is OK, nothing changed.

Powerglide operating correctly, all gears and trans brake normal operation.

One thing that gave me a smile, with the 1.98 low in trans and 6.0 rear gear at about 1200 RPM idle in low gear the rear tires are moving rather slowly. I think pit road speed limit will be easily conformed
