Engine Runs off Coolant temp, and MAF which in the video no MAF so the engine had no clue as to the air flow, coolant temp or Iat temps so it should of ran worse then that but not good to be revving unless you wanna replace it right after the transmission.

Take your time do it right and then enjoy the car with starting it up.

You will love it once it is done, mine is flying and we only started messing with it.

GoodLuck!

UUUUPPPPPPDDDAATESSSS! :lol:
It is running and driving short distances. Got her all together and the 700 was missing the sun gear so we threw the stock(TH250?) in it. Lasted a whole 2 days :lol: . Luckily I got the 700 back the next day. Also got a jegs dual hump x-member for the exhaust, and got the exhaust for christmas. Put the 700 in, worked a detent in, and the lockup is wired to a switch until I get a chance to go back in there and wire it to the 4th gear pressure switch. Interior is still apart, but I want it to go together last so I dont have to take it all apart again for any reason. Anyway, here are some pictures.
