Nice progress man! Some time consuming stuff you got knocked out there, coming together nicely

That bulkhead was a good idea; it looks nice and clean. We're tuned in for the wiring!

Baby steps, small weekday projects.

Trying to make time to get into the garage and knock out small items during the week since I cant dedicate significant time to the garage (usually 2-3hours MAX during the week days).

I got out there yesterday to sort the steam vent concern. The kit I had I made look decent I think.







Plenty of room at the rear of the engine. Sits well under the map sensor/etc.


Front is a little closer, specifically the fitting by the fuel line crossover.


There is a gap, but it's paper thin.


The line off the tee fitting on the front will go back to the radiator here


I ordered the 1/4" NPT to -4 AN adapter so I can complete that line and have it follow the radiator hose route. Should be very clean looking once completed.

Small update:

Got the fitting in the radiator so the steam vents can be completed.


Decided I was going to dedicate time to get the wiring on the engine complete and loomed appropriately for the setup I have.




All injector wiring is secured to the manifold and as clean as I can make it. When its complete and just before putting intake on, I'll remove tags and add some split loom so you dont see the wires as much.


Looks pretty good considering in this picture all wires are run basically. Wills till have leads going to each corner for the coil packs and plug wires coming in, but should be able to make those pretty clean/tidy looking.


Pretty cramped under the intake, but it works.


Backside isn't the prettiest, but it'll work and is mostly hidden.




Utilizing the factory wiring off the coil pack mounts, and some re-taping, I cleaned up the coil pack wiring on the relocation brackets.




Moving on, I picked up my dash from powder coat so I started adding in the pieces. (I still need to paint the ac bezel satin black.


Wiring was started but on hold till a new crimper shows up for all the pins/connectors I'm populating.


Aside from needing to re-pin the map sensor for the 3bar map I have, and one Wideband that was damaged by ignorance, the motor is basically wired. I have my work curout for me inside the car with all that wiring remaining but it's close.

I also forgot a couple wires in that loom so it will be coming apart again and getting a couple wires added (AC signal, starter signal).
