New Engine....
Fired off the engine I rebuilt with forged rods, head studs and valve springs!
 It took almost a year but it's running. Now to start over with a HyperMax rodded block. Only tried out the stockish tune from TDP and it was running smooth. May have a slight boost leak, definitely have an oil leak and a broken bypas nipple on the coolant reservoir. I do say....only driving it 2 miles stock, I love driving the Ford over CTD common rail dawdge I've been driving. Don't get me wrong....Destroked common rail conversion did cross my mind.

Freakin' awesome!
 It's always a treat to hit the key and hear the magical sounds of all 8 cylinders rumbling happily.

Yup....felt great!
Should have primed the oil rails but it finally kicked off with continual refilling of the HPOP reservoir. Now we've got to get my burner figured out...I'm going to install Phoenix flash on puter at work and see what it does.
