I got some goodies at the pick apart today.

 

240 peddle. [ I got this so i can use the stock KA throttle cable when I do the swap.]

they had a few more items i wanted but I couldn't fit anything else in my pockets. :D

 

then I went and installed the peddle. It was almost a bolt in fit.

 

The top bolt fit perfect.

There was no spot for a second one so I drilled and put a sheet metal screw. It is kinda think metal so it took a bit of working to get the screw to go in. But its snug.

I also had to move my throttle cable hold down about a half inch. I just drilled a new hole for that.

I mounted my ecu today. and ran the harness into the engine bay. Right now I still have the L series motor in the car so the KA harness is rolled up and stuffed to one side.

I dont know if you can tell but i ran the harness up over the ecu in back of the glove box so it hides all the wires. I am going to mount my relay box under the hood and finish the wiring tomorrow.

What tranny is on your L series? If it's a zx or any of the "long" L series trannys you should just run a Nap z trans or do a bell swap that way you can keep the DL you have and tranny mount. This is all based on which tranny the L series has no reason to do it other wise.

I would but of the three transmissions I own they are all dogleg 5 speeds. and they all have a short fifth gear. I want something that will be a little better then that.

 

I want to keep the L20 since it only has 2000 miles on it. I kinda want to find another truck for cheap [or free] to drop it into so I can have a parts truck in sacramento.

 

Although I wish I had a project 510 and maybe a garage so I could make everything super nice not find all the parts and then throw it in. haha. but maybe someday I will be at that stage.

cleaned up the intake a little bit.

I also got really frustrated looking at those pictures of my ecu and hated the wires hanging everywhere. So i re-wired my entire stereo front to back and put it under the carpet and also hid the other wires that were just existing below the dash.

 

this is what it used to look like

This is what I just did.
