Thanks guys now all I got to do is get gauges
Swap in the oil pan
Changes the park plugs
And conect the oil feed and drain lines

And I'm good to go. Dyno

Get them gauges hooked up. Not hard at all.

Looks great, really nice unit.

I know I'm not going to be able to do the gauges I suck at wiring

 

[Wicked One]

Really??? I know someone who is pretty good at wiring I will have some free time in a week. I can help you out.

Been a little busy here myself getting my car running, but she is ready for the dyno next week

Wow that sounds good I should do the same how much do they charge for all that and dyno tune ? That would be better then calling a flat bed and have it taken to a shop and yada yada and I heard good things about. Sansone

ok i may not have to replace the oil pan i punched the hole a little bigger then i re tapped it and use a bigger fitting but even tho there is a very very small gap between the pan and fitting ......WHAT CAN I USE TO SEAL THAT TO MAKE SURE THERE ARE NO LEAKS

its really dark out .....my friend is saying it might be the gass to we are going to buy some gas tomorrow

When you tapped the oil pan for the oil drain, did you make sure you didn't get any filings into the oil pan? I know the oil pickup probably has a screen, but you don't want that getting clogged with filings.

 

[MR99SVTCOBRA]

yea i took a small magnet and played around for like one hour till i made sure there was no more metal inside of the pan.........there wasnt really alot to begin with i used grease when i punched and tapped the pan soo the grease caught most of it

 

[MaximumRisk]

clean up the area around the fitting really well and JB-weld the fitting to the pan.

Good job By the way!!!!

 

[MR99SVTCOBRA]

whats a jb weld?
