Part of the feed line got upgraded to -10 hose, about 10ft of it  :rock: 


With any luck I might be able to make some progress soon

Looks like a measured a little on the long side atleast for the ones under the hood, but they still fit. Hopefully I'll get to mess with it tomorrow. The -10 is going to be tight between the body and tank, and I'm sure the silicone abrasion and heat shield on the outside will complicate it a little more.

Got the lines and the pump installed today. Nothing went the way they should have, but it came together in the end.

Mulling over getting Jacks lines from Racetronix and going to a bigger pump next year. Heard they're to long. How much you got left to fire it?

Needs coolant, oil +primed, alternator and belt installed, plugs/wires, tune for 2bar, and some minor wiring: gauge lights, boost controller, and fan triggers, fuel pump hotwire.


Then it needs the brakes bleed, exhaust, and 4.11's installed. Goal right now is just to fire it. Some thump and turbo whistle will motivate me.

End of October. Might not make it this year. I'd rather take the time to get it shorted out, rather than chase my ass at the track

A smart man once told me to take the time and do it right the first time or you'll have to make the time to do it right the second go around.
