Still working on idle, that's about 1100 in the video. Want to get it to around 950-1000, not sure i'll get much less than that with the injectors/etc it has.

Also I have to get the cooling system bled. It cant seem to get itself regulated on temperature (90 deg day, sitting idle, it gets to 190-200 in a matter of 4-5 minutes). I think that's all part of just needed to bleed the system. No doubt the autoRad and twin fans running 90% should get it to stabilize at 190.

One interesting thing that's going on, is the clutch fully to the floor, the car wont go in gear while stopped. If i let the pedal come up slightly, it goes right in gear. No grinding, pedal feel is good, just doesn't like it when pedal is on the floor.

Thanks!

Talked to a friend and he said I have too much clutch stroke/bore.

Bore is sized as per typical aftermarket GM clutch kits. So I'll reduce the stroke a bit and see what it does. Should get better. It'll help my fitment too by moving feet closer to the floor!

The upper channel where the top shock perch is? I considered that area but tight squeeze with length of the line attached to them and that's where my y block is mounted and fuel sensor for the vaporworx setup. Not much room.

yes but in the inside of the car. Drill a hole, add a grommet, run the line inside the car.

Are the reservoirs easily detachable from the hose? I wouldn't be drilling a hole big enough to pass the reservoir through.

I may consider it if that's the case, but it'd be down the road when the exhaust is eventually routed out the back of the car.

Trust me you are going to need that space for your tail pipes. My dynatech exhaust tail pipes were easily modified to route over the quadralink
