So you are sliding into the tent tonight and firing this up?!

I think once he gets a TPS, and gets the fuel rail welded up, its just a matter of making a fuel rail mount bracket, modding some of the charge piping, and wiring up the sensors.
I THINK HE TOLD ME HE WOULD HAVE IT DONE NEXT WEEKEND
Im pretty sure it bugs the crap out of him when I prod him like this , lol.

You both are bastards!!!

Well more progress this weekend. Drilled a new hole in the top of the fuel rail and welded up the FPR mount and old hole. Turned out rather nice.
Mounted it all back on the engine and it fits very purdy.
Started figuring out the mounting location for the fuel rail and decided to bend up a bracket to go from the stock fuel rail mounts to the manifold stud.
Then I also started running the megasquirt harness and wiring through the firewall and into the engine bay. Boy this is going to be some tedious wiring work!!
-
If you are referring to the white wires coming off the injectors, no it is not lamp cord, lmfao!!! They are injector harnesses like these here.

Oh I will totally take those! (no no really)
-
Ok good deal, I just thought it looked funny. Also, this thing is going to be awesome when done, keep up the good work.
Thanks man!
-
Went ahead and mounted the fuel rail along with the intake manifold. Snap also came over to help and got a big chunk of the wiring done. Thanks again! Tomorrow I should have pretty much all the wiring done with the exception of a few things like IAT sensor since that hasn't been mounted yet.

So running by Monday??

That's nice that things get done when he is over. When I go over there, we just play with UV lights. @__@
Also. I hear with the removal of krap-jet you gained room in the engine bay. Any plans for a nice shiny bay?
-
Oh you! (flips the wrist)
Well thats a great thing to play with dye and uv light. We had our rave parties too when I had my coolant leak.
Tons of room on the passenger side of the bay. Eventually when I pull the engine to do the 2.0 crank/rod/piston upgrade I will definitely clean up the bay and paint it nicely. That wont be for awhile tho. I want to enjoy it for awhile before it goes under the knife again.

Well, haven't done much of any work on the car the past few weeks due to cold ass weather, snow blocking entrance to the work area, work taking up tons of time and now just got an accepted offer on a duplex I am purchasing in Bayview. Busy, busy, busy. Hopefully soon I will muster up the motivation and time to work on that damn wiring again. I did however semi-purchase a set of wheels for when the Groupe 2 flares go on. Expect some pics later tonight if all goes well.

Picked up some 15x9 et-15 Rota Grid V wheels. They are bronze with black plastidipped centers. The offset and size should be perfect for what my setup will be. I realized that finding the size and offset I need in the bbs style (my first choice) is nearly impossible or down right way too expensive for me. So as these are my first choice, they should do the job well.

Just get some rays white stickers for the spokes and no one will know
