Last piece: the front pad strip.

First, a good cleaning.

Completed top on the car, and checking the fit of the rear weatherstripping. Looks good.

Need to work on mine.

Thanks, guys. I am still messing with the right window. I got it a little better, but still not 100%.

I decided to take a 914 break and change the oil in my truck.

Its time to prepare for the engine and trunk lids. To finish up in the engine compartment, I need to remove the pressure gauge I had spliced into the fuel lines. I consistently saw 40-45 psi with the engine running, so don't need this anymore (fingers crossed).

It still shows some pressure, even after sitting for at least a week.

Next step: duct hoses for the forced air supply to the exhaust heat exchangers.

And the right side. I think that is the last thing to install in the engine compartment.

Net step: painting the side areas that sit below the mini-grilles. Start the masking.

While staring at the new EFI stuff, and waiting for paint to dry between coats, I decided to try mocking up a cover. Pretty close for a first effort.

Relay board cover? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

It would be really slick if your EFI cover looked similar.
