small delay... i marked the manifold wrong for cutting, so it was about 1/4" off. i reworked it a bit and sent it back to the shop for another round of welding... car should run on wednesday. i've got all the parts except the battery cables now

 

Decided to keep the PULLEY KIT?! Looks good...

 

almost up and running huh, you should join the beater meet this friday so we can all see Mild's old ride again, and running finally

 

na, that one came with the engine. i just felt bad about waiting so long to send your back, so i'll just sell it off by itself instead of returning it to you.

 

where is the beater meat?

 

Check out the attention belligerents thread, its on the 16th of this month, tgif in city of industry.

 

manifold isn't ready, so the car won't be ready by then.

the intrepid, however, is ready to roll

 

Roll with your Beater, it's highly encouraged.

 

WOOOOOOHOOOOOOO
it fired up tonight.

 

ah yes, a very good feeling indeed.....

 

i'll get better pics when everything's together.

 

Couple of Q's:

1: What are you using fore Engine Management !?

2: 4 Coils !? what kind? and what Ignition Amp ?

-DC

 

haltech e8,
2 ls2 '05 vette coils...built in ignitors. those things are little flame throwers!!!

 

**update**
200 miles on it and it's doing great!! i think i'll need to rebuild/replace the clutch master or slave...whichever it turns out to be. but no engine-related problems to speak of.

somebody find brian and have him hit me up... he gets the first ride!!!

 

9.8 psi just revving in neutral. boost controller isn't hooked up yet, and that's when the wastegate opens.

not bad considering the afr's were in the 10's

i'll lean it out progressively, but this thing has serious potential.
