Have you tested the solenoids in the "rat box"?

You might want to consider a new rat box entirely.

installed the exhaust manifold today and some pulleys along with a mishimoto thermostat. I'm going to need to fabricoble a hoisting point for this that fits in that spot im pointing to on one of the pics so i can set this bitch on a table to build the top end of the engine up so i can add the alternator bracket and other crap that goes along with it.
