Hi all,

always an exciting moment when after more then a years work you turn the key..! The Shark fired up right away! Sounded very powerful with the DMS exhaust pipe.

Haven't driven yet. Need to bleed the brakes first and i'm waiting for my gear shifter stick, which had to be bend to fit (toyota W58 conversion).

Hood has to go back on and then I'm back on the road to test the new 2.2L engine, the bilstein shocks, Jensport Big Brakes and all other upgrades.

I'll post new pictures this weekend.

cheers

Congratulations! Its been fun and educational "watching" your progress. I know I've learned from your experiences. Its great to feel and hear a 907 come back to life. Mine sat for 15 years with the PO, and with the help of Tim Engle started right up. I bet its even better with a 2.2! We all look forward to continued updates and pictures. Enjoy, you deserve it! John
