Any updates on this awesome project?
I am contemplating the same thing myself. Did you have any issues with belt tension, vacuum leaks or anything else that others seem to have?
Have you done any monitoring of the engine yet to check the AFR? What was the fuel regulator you used?
Cheers
Matt.
Have had some issues, but have been too busy with work to sort out the problems.
First issue I had was a leaking rising rate fuel reg, it was leaking from a relief hole in side of reg, and of course Holley are saying that we fitted it wrong and I am at fault. Still trying to get some sense from them.
I purchased another reg, this time a Magna Fuel.
During the fitting of the S/C, I think I pinched an O ring on a fuel injector, the end result was one blew out and I had an engine fire, some damage was done to various parts and I have been replacing or repairing where needed.
The downside is the motor is running crap at the moment, when it is cold feels great, as it gets to running temp it starts to miss and backfire and I havent been able to find out why yet.
I have changed leads, had the injectors tested and cleaned, new plugs, tried another ECU , gone over the loom where it was fire damaged. Had to replace the battery and alternator, one cooked and the other died. My throttle position sensors where damaged as well, got and lend of a couple to try but they were different, so I dont know if that could cause some issues.
Now when I drive it to see whats happening the temp gauge does some weird things and the cat light has started coming on.
All I have left is to strip back the engine loom and see if there is some other damage in the loom that I may have missed earlier.
Once I get it running properly or maybe sooner to see if some issues can be sorted, I will put it on the dyno and see what happens.
I really want this going properly.
