Finally went wheeling with the repair/new stuff.
Foremost, there is no bad day when you're out wheeling with you friends.
it did get cut short because I had trouble with both the EFI and then at the end transmission... Since this isn't pirate, the build is honest and not perfect.
made the hour plus drive to the trailhead without problems
then this
2 electricians and a computer systems guy... what did we do? reboot by turning the system on and off
turns out that what I should have done there is turn up the idle screw.... the IAC was overwhelmed - thus it was running like crap HOWEVER, at this point front right injector was on full bore.... I think the reboot did get the injector to behave, but the close way out from here is a 2 mile very steep downhill - and once you're committed there is no tap out.... no motor means no brakes, so we saved that battle for another day.
The other issue that I haven't diagnosed yet is a howling when going into 2nd from either direction (and only 2nd). It doesn't do it all the time, but the clutch isn't fully disengaging when warm so that solution may fix this...
to be continued.

I like these mounts just fine but in LSR we are specifically prohibited from using hose clamps to restrain any bottles. No clue on the history behind that but I'll wager someone got hit with a fire bottle or some such during an "incident" and they banned it. As a practical matter I'm sure what you have will be more than adequate.
