I finally got around to test firing my LS conversion this weekend. :eek:hnoes It was a little hairy because I had made my own harness and was not sure I had everything in place like it should be. Turns out we have a battery that is only putting out about 11.8 volts after being on trickle charge most of the week. Dead cell I suspect. Oh well, just another step.

Test Fire


 
Eddie, it looks awesome in there! I'm surprised you guys didn't have a spare battery laying around.

I can't wait to see/hear it running. :bar
 
Hey Les!! The battery had been on a Battery Tender charger all week long. I expected it to be in pretty good condition after a weeks charging. Turns out there must be a dead cell. Voltage across the battery was 11.3V or so. I am going to exchage it tomorrow and try again later in the weekend and see if it will run again.

I am ready to hear it run!!! I was pretty excited as you could tell when it did fire.
 
I'll be waiting!
 
I want pictures, videos, and a how-to guide!!!!

Good Luck!
 
Eddie?!?! What gives Bro? We...ah screw 'em ...I need an update! LOL!
