Cpl620 Posted January 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2015 it was just starter fluid since im still waiting on one part for my cooling system and one part for my fuel system. all of which should be here tomorrow. im going back and making the actual harness right now. it was just twisted together to make sure all the connections were good and that this engine actually ran. its looking like it wont be moving under its own power until tuesday night or Wed afternoon. 3 Quote Link to comment

Cpl620 Posted January 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2015 made the harness, just need to wrap it, but ill leave it for now so make sure nothing shorts out on the first few test drives. spent about 3 hours chasing grounds and trying to figure out why it wouldn't fire back up. a fuse was blown for my coils... she fire right back up now. i think shes loud enough to set off alarms. perfect.things left to do.Install Wideband, tighten all suspension bolts, install last fuel fitting, install last rad hose fitting, wire lighting, route idle air and pcv system, plug spare vac., flush fuel/break lines, mount oil filter, mount hydrological reservoirs, bleed hydraulics, cut exhaust side ports, harness bar, tower extenders, bolt down bed. 4 Quote Link to comment

Cpl620 Posted January 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2015 Its the injector pulses. Since I dont have an O2 hooked up it keeps jumping. That, and its someones tune I took. Once I tune it and hook everything up, it should be a lot smoother. 1 Quote Link to comment

]2eDeYe Posted January 7, 2015 Report Share Posted January 7, 2015 Sounds good. Shifter position looks a little awkward just an optical illusion? 1 Quote Link to comment

Cpl620 Posted January 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2015 Sounds good. Shifter position looks a little awkward just an optical illusion? No, it is wayyyy far back. I have to make an adapter for it. But I need to take it to a buddies shop to use his machines. 3 Quote Link to comment
INDY510 Posted January 7, 2015 Report Share Posted January 7, 2015 needs moar exhaust fumes ... :lol: ... and maybe better coilover shock towers?? I worry those extensions won't be safe when you start driving too fast. ... but if you're going to get shorter struts anyway, it's not worth re-doing the shock towers twice. 1 Quote Link to comment
Ben280 Posted January 7, 2015 Report Share Posted January 7, 2015 DUDE! Nice progress on this, getting stoked to see it rolling around! Looking forward to how you solve the shifter sitch. 2 Quote Link to comment
Cpl620 Posted January 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2015 Yeah, what I have now is just to roll it. Ill beef them up. But yes, eventually im getting smaller struts. I put kroil in the cylinders, and its still not burnt off. That and its pig rich from not having an O2 1 Quote Link to comment
