Ahh got ya. Think I’ll be in same boat then….

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

2nd connection? Doesn’t the loom just plug straight in???

 

Or do u have adapter to covert ev14 to ev12 etc?

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Improved racing baffle and Crank Scraper, (waiting on my ASR windage tray still)

Looking good mate, just hope the brake line isnt a long painful job, will suck if it slows build down just for the sake of a few pretty brake lines that most people will not notice. Keep it simple not like you will be at car shows with bonnet popped etc

 

shouldbt be too hard or painful. Painting the bay so it’s something I know will shit me.

I shouldn’t be too harsh. I’ve got a Toyota too.

Some happy snaps of the conversion gear, while I’m outside

Subtle mods to keep the bay fresh.

My angle grinder has already gotten the best of the brake likes. So I have no option now lol

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Didn’t do much today. But had a good suss of the rear end. I pulled out the up trailing arms. I think they were well and truly cooked.

Also got some good ideas for the brake line from this beautiful VK

U should be banned for asking stupid questions.

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

yeah I know what your saying. I went through all of this when I built the old SS.

So I kinda know the process and what to expect. Trying to make it as smooth as possible.

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Hey Ian. I just noticed your running the ls9 cam. I was considering this until I found something slightly larger. Do u have an idle video?

 

Also so what’s your exhaust consist of?!

Happiness is an engine eased in over xmas

 

thats the plan. Fingers crossed. I’ll slide it in. Get it sorted and then yank for paint

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Not much to update as of late. Been busy with work and the little one.

I did manage to swap my headers for a set of CRS 1-7/8 4-1 headers. These should help get the engine breathing.

Have also purchased some goodies

TCI LSA flex plate + ARP bolts
Holley 12-848 Fuel Reg
Sump Gasket
Improved Racing baffle kit + Crank Scraper.
My windage tray is also at ASR getting modded.

Plan is to hopefully ease engine in over the Xmas break.

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Air hose into rocker cover. Crank with coil lead off and wait til oil spills out oil pump fitting. Where pressure sensor would be
