And then it went to STL, later MN and now it's in VA.

small update, SHOsource steel billet 17lb flywheel, ARP Flywheel bolts, ARP pressure plate bolts, and Intake manifold gasket set.

spent some time.assembling the coolant lines/thermostat housing/coolant crossover tube. Also got the coil pack on.

Next week the motor gets a wiring harness, fuel rails, a set of ID1000's. And i will probably start on the intake manifold.

Looking great! So happy the "Drift King" is dead. Also with weight reduction you could go the Penske 1967 Camaro Trans Am route and have your panels dipped in acid to thin up the metal. Hope to hear it running in Texas.

Fuel System SUNDAY!

255lph fuel pump, ID1000 injectors, polished up the fuel rails. Got the engine wiring harness on and did the belts. The belts may change if i can find a better way to route the ALT belt.

ignore the ****** polish job.

Looking real good Zach !

Zach, just remove the ac and build a bracket that also lets you tension the alt.

just curious, what got you to go with Purple? sports team etc? Everything looks damn clean man!! going to be nice to fire it up that first time

what exhaust you going with?

If you had bored fuel rails, you could have run the 14mm top hats... Which are purple.

zach44102 · Mar 31, 2014

When I first got the injectors I was so disappointed that they were not purple.

I went with purple cause its FABULOUS DUH!!!

I routed my ALT belt on the other side of the tensioner and pushed down on the belt to take up the slack. It gave me more belt wrap around the ALT/crank pulley's and got good tension prior to getting too close to the other side of the belt loop.
