Sweet nova. I think you are heading in the right direction with your upgrades.

Wiring always intimidates people, but they teach you how to connect the dots and trace lines in preschool. One wire at a time. Label everything. Slow is smooth, and smooth is fast.

Good luck with your build. The fuel injection should treat you right.

Tough lookin' ride
 
Dig the car and color scheme!

thanks guys, the wiring doesnt really bother me. I have wired quite a few cars so that part although time consuming isnt something I dread. I take pride in making it right while hiding as much of the wiring as possible for the most sanitary look.

I was able to complete the fuel system upgrade this weekend. I used -6an braided ptfe line with a walbro inline pump and corvette style regulator/filter.

I was able to get some of the engine harness wired in between family duties this week

Finally scrounged up enough money and bought the Microsquirt ECU and Ford Taurus radiator fan. All I need now is a new radiator to replace my leaking old one and to install everything and she will be ready to run again!

Looks good when will it be running bud?

70TWO NOVA 07-16-2015 05:22 PM

I'm hoping sometime next month. Got a TDY to get through before I can work on it again. :(

Glad to see you making progress on the car, Brian. Good luck getting it on the road soon.
