get it working then clean it up!?

this is the wiring i threw together quick for my neighbors corvette, 79 vette with a silverado 4.8 and 60e swapped into it, i like to use wire nuts to make sure everything is working before you permanently wire it, then after it was all working he cleaned it up nice and neat on the right side, looks stock!

updates on fairmont 3 today


started eyeballing a intercooler into the car today, going to give our regular small intercooler a try as a fair test of power difference, then i might go stupid later like large custom 4 inch core or air to water intercooler setup.
but for now i think a good test of is the turbo and hotside better, is using the same intercooler we always do.


got the radiator mounted up in the car

88 mustang gt upper rad hose, cherokee lower rad hose
had to cut the lower rad support, *its double layered* dropped that rad about 2.5 inches down to make it flush
that is the truck alternator bracket drilled out and shoved on sideways
have to credit my friend for coming up with that one, and a 69 inch belt from AZ teeing it all together.

fuel fun today

cut out the stock exhaust, and dropped the tank... a few times, lol turns out these 400s draw alot of power and i had to mess with the wiring and make a larger connector for the power going to these beasts, also, the 30 amp constant 40amp peak relay gets hot... so i bought 70 amp for it.

oh well, these things flow like a sunofabitch.

here are early pictures, by the second time the tank came down i didnt want to mess around with taking pics.

Map sensor adaptor harness

Built this adaptor harness for donavans car, it has a new style map sensor plug and we were updating it to the older style ebay 3 bar connector, it plugs in to the stock harness and changes the map sensor over to a older style map plug, nice and neat. easier than working on the harness in the back of the car.
