Hey all - not sure if you all were aware that I have been in the middle of a conversion build since last year. Well the time finally came, or should I say a fire under my butt, to get me to push for a completion. By completion I mean a running/driving 6. Quick back story. Bought the car from a member 74 2.0. Already had glass flares, 5 lug, and an overheating engine. Dropped that out as I had a 2.7 waiting to be finished. Collected parts for the engine. Collected parts for the conversion. Sat back and waited for it to build itself, it didn't. Finally bought my tix for Okteenerfest so now I'm forced to get it done in time. I recently posted up an extensive to do list.
She won't be a show winner, but she may just get me there. Here is the current state of affairs. 2.7 - ITB twin plug EFI (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/live.staticflickr.com-18763-1628735514.1.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/live.staticflickr.com-18763-1628735515.2.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/live.staticflickr.com-18763-1628735515.3.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/live.staticflickr.com-18763-1628735515.4.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/live.staticflickr.com-18763-1628735516.5.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/live.staticflickr.com-18763-1628735516.6.jpg) Yup! definitely grabbed the wrong hole saw 3" (should have been 2.5") smh (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/live.staticflickr.com-18763-1628735516.7.jpg) Have to address this rust I cut out before I can mount the tank.

Was hoping to throw some fuel in for a first start, but am currently waiting for tech support to figure out why the injector is not firing. I have uploaded the tune, data logs, and wiring diagram in hopes that something can be found.
I'll start focusing my efforts on getting the car ready for the engine: Task list Install Tangerine return fuel line (PO only did 1 as it was carb'd) -watch Ian's vid again -remove fuel tank -feed line through -While in there replace wiper motor and hopefully get that working or it's RAIN-X Install newly purchased brake regulator that has the Unicorn Banjo bolt...smdh Bleed brakes Grind away ugly welds and weld in piece of of firewall - this should complete the welding...for now anyway Cut last hole for oil tank Install shift bushing Install new clutch cable Install new Patrick Motorsports throttle cable Reinstall most of the interior |
