Appreciate it sir. Gotta take a break sometimes to keep me from going in circles. I tend to get messy while working.

As for tuning, I will do my own start up tune. It’s slim pickings in my area for dyno tuning. Still got to figure that out.

Minor update:

Catch can installed. Probably going to print a different mount for it to get a better angle and not touch on the bottom.

Got the mechanical part of the turbo install done. Time to start planning the fuel line routing.

Damn! Looks really clean. I can’t wait to see the dyno numbers on this one. You’re really starting to make some noticeable progress, it has to be really nice to see big things coming together.

Appreciate it a lot guys!

It's been a slow go, but it's starting to come together and progress is easy to see now.

Designed and printed a new mount for my catch can and a a holder/mount for my flex fuel sensor.

Catch can mounts on the 5 degree slope of the passenger inner fender where ABS used to be.

Flex fuel sensor will be mounted on the passenger side frame about middle of the car.

This evening I tackled the “snake”. They were NOT exaggerating when they said it would make you curse. Got it in, now need to clean it up and polish it. It took a beating trying to get it in there.

I will be pulling the ac back out to clean up and powder coat the bracket.

Decided on coil pack location. Next to the radiator on the frame rail. Same location on both sides.

While I sort out plug wire routing and wait on fuel system parts, I made a thing.

Mounted my vacuum block on the intake. Will run directly from the back of the intake to the vacuum block, and from there to everything including the brake booster. I'm happy with how it turned out.

So, I am looking for opinions on 2 things. Plug wire routing and Heater core hoses.

Heater core hoses, I have setup the stock lines for now, but would like something "nicer". Any suggestions?

For the plug wire routing, I am testing with 3 different styles that I made for the plug wire. I am leaning towards the bottom one shown. Fastens with a 3mm Flat head screw. and keeps it all on the "flat".

All opinions and ideas are welcomed! And yes, everything is dirty. I promise it will be clean when done.

Brian
