Well the watermelon wagon engine bay version 2. I know I know it could of been cleaner, its the best I can do. I changed some things to be cleaner.

 

MAP sensor in cab now

Header was installed this time with steering box out as it won't go in with it in. It was scratched up pretty good.

Routed both engine and valve cover vents to catch can

Pulled all the coil brackets off and cleaned it up by mounting vertical and shorter wires.

Of course went back to a little red under the hood

All new wire harness

Most all nuts and bolts that were not changed out now are

Re did the brake lines again, not the best but way better.

These items are to just to name a few. 

 

Do you know which type of bracket you ordered to fit that Chase Bays coolant overflow tank to your car? There seems to be five choices and I'm not sure which one is best...? 

Thanks again,

JK

PS Your car is just beautiful 😍

So what I did was is remove the bracket and bolted right to front core support. Much cleaner and nicer.

Did the engine not get run on the dyno first?

It was denied according to Robellos numbers 222 Hp but that was with carbs. Im doing all this complicate my life fuel injection stuff. I was thinking of upgrading the ECU but the Microsquirt is all I need for this engine. It is running but seems like timing is way off, its popping so pretty sure. Plus I would kick my fat ass for not marking the TDC on the crank pulley before installing.
