Default it sounds so sweet I just had to share

Here's a quick video (just for the sound) of my new 276ci 3/4 cam 59AB. Can't wait to get it back on the road. Just click on my picture of my finger.

Good sound. What is the cam?

Let us know how it runs when it is on the road.

The engine was rebuilt by Jerry Livingston at United Engine Specialist in Wichita KS. and they grind their own cams. This one is a copy of an old Harman Collins but is very similar to an Isky Max1.

Is this the Internet version of "pull my finger"?

I go weak at the knees when I hear a good flathead, always have and always will.
That's a very attractive finger as well!

Can we see the flatty rather than you giving us the finger. It sounds sweet.

I really wanted to wait till it was done to post pictures. I just got a great set of plug wire tubes from Andy here at FB and I also have a set of Rajah 90 deg. plug end to install but here it is as of Wed. I put and old pair of front tires on so I wouldn't mess up the new W/W's.
