SEAC now running on Emerald

[rev-erend]

Well finally - the SEAC is up and running on Emerald ..

It's taken a bit of blood, sweat and tears.. but I'm finally there. Got full control of fuel and ignition maps..

The neighbourhood had been a bit quiet for too long.. not now

nice one,

Hopfully have mine done in 3 - 4 weeks.

how's it running.

[rev-erend]

It's early days but seem to rev nicely .. finished at 7pm yesterday - so did not want to annoy the neighbours too much.

Now it runs OK - I've got to rip it all out..

Gear box needs to be refurbed and made stronger and pop in the new engine too..

Good luck with your Emerald install - they are anything but plain sailing ..

What you getting done to it, and by who.

As most people say there's not much can be done to a LT77.

Hopefully this weekend.. if I can get most of the ancillaries off on Saturday - perhaps an hour or two on Sunday morning ..

Started it up again tonight and it started first time .. which is always nice.

Tested the change up light works .. by setting it to it's minimum value of 2K .. one more thing off the list
