  • And then the parts arrived...
    so I know I'm tearing this apart... but I'm fixing several issues at once. Obviously the EFI, but the fans need to be on a switch and the fuel pump needs a switch for off too..
    but first, dewire several wires I don't need

    it arrived, but missing one part.... the clear cover for setting the various angles with the distributor... thankfully, it can be guessed...

    calm down, this is temporary so I can build a shelf here.

    unneeded wires

    controller goes inside

        • Guess what? Fed Ex is not delivering on time again.... FiTech knew not to send it through them, but in a final "screw you for not continuing to let us fix crappy products" they sent it by FedEx.....

            • Guess FI Tech couldn't end on a good note? Just had to get the last shot in, and I'm sure they knew you were done with them, so no reason to be nice.

              • heh, first picture of this series is 6 of 66.... and it's wiring. This is not coincidence.
                will this spot work?

                nope

                so I built a pan

                installed the digital ignition control inside

                except for fans, this is ready to run


                oh and some reassembly


                I'm so glad I bought the Dakota Digital dash - it really does make this a pretty easy thing to remove the dash to wire....

                • made noise tonight (yay).... thanks Regis!

                  wiring done (just need to tidy up

                  first shot was a fail because Holley didn't include their patented pointer setter.... which, I got it close, but what I didn't get close was which wire was number one

                  it runs again.... tomorrow, finish tidying up, tune it and drive it


                  I also got these so I can put the crotch harness into the stock seats...


                  part of me thinks I can rebuild the stock seats and add bolster.... dunno, don't think it saves me any money but they would fit better

                      between all the outside-the-racecourse crap that's happened... I wonder if there will be much more racing this year....

                          I received the EFI back today - not sure they actually touched it.... no receipt, no work done, stuff was just jammed in the box - this time without the foam on the top. They are a piece of work.
