Once we were done with the scales, we sent the car to the upholstry shop to get the carpet, headliner, and trunk finished up while we wait for the rest of the interior to come together. He finished up with the car this morning and did a nice, clean job.

The trunk was simple and efficient, I wanted to maintain a (modern) factory like finish and think that it hit the mark:

The headliner is obviously a little more difficult to show but here it is. We started with a seriously flawed piece from TopShop that needed to be extensively reworked. Although the entire process was more hassle than we had hoped, the finished product came out well.

With the first round of interior work done it was back in the shop and back up in the air to continue the assembly. Lots of small stuff going on all the same time but our focus for the weekend will be on the wiring and getting the car ready to fire next week.

Littlefuse and I-Squared have provided one of their increadible new ISIS power distribution/management systems for the car. The kit is increadibly complete and represents the absolute state of the art for wiring and control. I will be posting the step by step install of the system on the forums and with more detail on our wbsite as the installation goes forward over the next week. For now here are a couple of sneak peaks at the ISIS kit:



The heart of the ISIS System is the Mastercell which acts as a control hub for all of the downstream functions in the car. The programmablity of the Mastercell gives the entire system increadible power as it allows for multiple switches to control individual loads (like electric fans) and car incorporate soft starts for loads like Halogen or projector lights.



A single Mastercell can control up to five "Powercell" modules which is the muscle behind the Mastercell brain. CAN bus technology connects the Powercells to the Mastercell and reduces both the quantity of wiring required as well as the time needed for the installation.

We did a little bit of a cleanup in the engine compartment yesterday, replacing the factory fuel rails with a pair of billet rails. Like most of their parts, they came anodized bright red which was a little too bright for my taste so we had the rails sent to Pacific Coast Anodizing in Fresno, CA to be stripped and recoated in Black Hardcoat. Rodger from Ironworks was kind enough to check on them while they were there (or something like that) and they came out great...



in addition to tidying things up a bit, they will alllow us to ... try some different intake combinations ... not that I would be tempted to do something like that...
