I'm not sure if I'd have cried for you or laughed at you had you burned your jeep up this close to completion.
At least it wouldn’t have been a burned up LS!

“Kiss my “Thoroughbred Race Horse?” That’s some pretty harsh language, Bro…OK folks here YA go.....
Sounds pretty DANG NAB good.
Fires up pretty good now. I've still got to install the check valve and see if it helps or not. Just not sure which location I should be installing it at. Will play with that some over the next few days.
It's got a nice burble from the drivers side.
Just a short video of the dash while running. And yes I've still got the Check Engine light due to the transmission throwing a code. I need to run it thru the gears & then check my fluid levels to see if the transmission is possibly low.
Prior to getting it running after I'd fixed the fuel leaks on the fuel rails I had another one that was my return line. I'd pulled it to drill the hole for the height sensor and had forgotten to hook it back up. So I flooded the area around the tank sitting on my motorcycle lift. Not a BIG deal & was a 2 minute fix.
Started figuring out the HPTuners software and got the PCM downloaded so I can send it to Ryan @ FRP. This is a totally different deal than what I'm used to.
I now send this file to Ryan & he will write me a tune for my engine. Then I go thru a process of downloading the file he sends back to me & that gets installed onto the PCM in the Jeep.

I still don't have the fan or temperature sensor. Now that the I've got the engine running correctly I can start getting all thing tidied up.
I put one of the FRP stickers on my refrigerator and will put one more of the stickers on once I find a spot for it.

Hopefully the engine saga is over at this point.
Thanks to everyone who's offered help and advice. I know that there is a lot here to read so those of you who follow my thread I really do appreciate it.
@CMBD I honestly wasn't trying to blow you off when you were offering help with the intake issue I was just frustrated at the time.

Congrats Richardo. Great to see it run.
Shit if I had a Lame Shit engine in there I might have been tempted to torch it myself.....
It's either a Magnum or Hemi for this garage.
They didn't have a Mule or Donkey but I'm sure 99% of the folks here get it.
Thanks Jeff. Now to get busy with assembly so I can make a trip to TN & we can go Jeepin & go for a ride with the Adventure bikes.

Dig how your tri power setup is progressive. That's way cool.
Need to scare neighborhood kids with startups.
It brings joy
waaHOOOO!
No worries my friend I get it. I have been right there with my own stuff. And with other peoples stuff that needed to get on a trailer or on the track right now right now.

Are you sure that's lifter noise and not the injectors?Listening to the engine run now I really feel that my lifters are too lose & need to be tightened down 1/4 to 1/2 turn more. It's harder to hear in the video but standing there next to the Jeep you can hear them.
Transmission is low on fluid so I added the quart of Lucus transmission conditioner that was recommended and will check fluid level in the morning before I pull the valve covers to adjust the rockers.

Don’t adjust the lifters by sound, Rick, do it by lash. Put a 1/2 turn into a lifter that is already properly adjusted and you could be leaving the valve open.
I had those same tire on my Toyota with some re-centered H1s from Trailworthy Fab. The tires worked great!
Which tire? When I went to recentered H1's was when I went from 35x13.5x15 Toyo M/T's on single beadlocks to 38x12.5x16.5 TSL SX but I had 8 bolt H1's that I'd recentered myself.
