New Engine Bay Pix

Well, after pulling the LIM off to fix the coolant o-ring leak, sending the turbo off to BNR, having everything powdercoated, relocating the battery, installing e-fan I'm now left with waiting for the new injectors to come in. Here's a shot of the engine bay with the UIM just placed on for the photo.

Atkin's pulley set

I suggest an Atkins Rotary ribbed belt pulley set to complement the bay. learned a few days ago, they're available only in anodized black unless you tolerate an occasional 4-month wait for a new batch with custom requests.

1. Car's been down for a month.
2. Engine bay cleanliness: I've just kept it clean since I picked it up. When I had everything off, I also replaced the grommets in the MBC (leaked) and resprayed the damaged area. Also, replaced the oil pedestal o-rings. Went through the bay with engine degreaser and rinsed. And yes, I did use a toothbrush on a lot of the brackets that I didn't remove
3. I'm going with (4) 720cc injectors from Tim Marren's www.injector.com. I'll be using the SAFC until the Wolf is in.
4. I'll look into those pulley sets from Atkins too.

Note: you can see the overspray on the alternator as we didn't want to pull it apart to powdercoat.

I thought those are ford injectors so you would have to modifiy the rail or injectors to fit?

Oops:

Some import applications (Honda/Acura, Mitsubishi, and 2nd-generation Mazda rotary), require the use of top-feed fuel injectors with Japanese-style o-rings. Because of this, Marren Fuel Injection has released its line of Pro Import fuel injectors. High-impedance Pro Import injectors are available in sizes ranging from 370 cc/min to 440 cc/min hour. Low-impedance designs are available in flow rates from 577 cc/min to 1680 cc/min. For more information on how to choose the proper injector for your vehicle, please see our Injector Selection page

Good question. Atkins Rotary and I had a bump in the quality, but we resolved it. Atkins exchanged one of the pulleys with me. I received the exchange, but now I can't find it in the maze of new parts.

But, I've found 2/3 of the pulley wheels, and I've dumped a crude image here:

If you're using Mozilla, and see a freakin' silly tripod graphic below, right-click it and choose View Image, or use the hyperlink.

Because of their cost, I think adapting to the FD set of hardware opens a variety of options.
