Look what is finally finished..........I'll get it installed........finish up the fuel line.......install the Vaporworx fuel pressure control system........then off to the Exhaust shop........
Got everything finished except for the Exhaust system........all the wiring is completed......the last wires were for the Vaporworx fuel pressure controller......got it buttoned up and turned the key on......The pump ran for a couple seconds and shut off......with out starting that's exactly what it's supposed to do..........Now I have to put some gas in the tank to start it up......then get it to the exhaust shop...........Next project coming up shortly is to take the 454 out of Gary's 65 Biscayne and swap in a LS3.........Stay Tuned........
That is probably the most funky factory designed tank i've ever seen. What did you do, take a stock tank and cut and fab a portion for the vaporworx set up? if you posted i musta missed it...

A little update.....After starting the car it was noticed that the Alternator wasn't charging.........Ended up I had to put a ground wire from the alternator to the block.......charges fine now.....no fuel line leaks.......Added transmission fluid......everything Good......Made an appointment at the Muffler shop to get the Exhaust system installed......Then we have a problem..........Started the car and let it run for a while to check out the cooling fans.......Look under the car and coolant leaking .....Damm........Ended up being the Concept1 Billet thermostat housing leaking where they put the Hose Tube into the body.........called them and they said that they had a problem with them and changed the way they manufacture them to eliminate that problem........the "Big" problem is that the housing is buried under everything and I had to pretty much remove everything to get at it........4 hours later I got it off and waiting for a new GM one to show up............Darn........I was all done and now the car is in pieces again.......Gotta push the exhaust appointment back to next week........
