This weekend I will spend doing a taxi test so I can get used to the steering.
After I am confident with steering, then I can take her to the runway for high
speed test and flight.
I will let you know, would love to have you here.

Congrats Luis! Your engine sounds like music to my ears! Have you tried the
engine sound & behavior at full throttle as well?! I would rather hear the
steady & nice sound at full throttle for an extended period of time! Any plans
for the first take off during this coming weekend? I may be able to drive over
to Dallas and to help recording your first flight on vedo....
cheers,
Dr. Hsu

I finally got my engine to idle correctly without issues for the first time. I
built this engine three years ago after I purchased it from a Q2 owner. I
installed Revmaster 041 heads with stainless steel valves and then put the
engine aside while I finished my work on my airplane... move forward three
years and it was time to run the engine... Since I had installed a dual
electronic ignition, which gave me a lot of trouble to install being that it
was the third of its kind for a VW engine (Sam Spanovich has one), that took
over a month. the aerocarb that I purchased about the same time as the engine,
needed a lot of adjustments, I then found that the engine valves were never
adjusted properly (by muah), and I found the right manifold loose. After a very
frustrating three months of chasing down problems... the results are in, I hope
you enjoy this short video
