I took the car up to a tuner nearby earlier this week. More or less I'm paying them to put a second set of eyes on my build to make sure I haven't done anything stupid. Apparently my exhaust is hitting my rear end so I need to look at that a little closer. Anyone else had that issue with TTI...
Thanks for the compliment. I agree it looks a bit off. It's actually fairly level and the pinch seam is 3/8" higher in the rear, but it certainly doesn't look that way. I've got 18's in the front and 20's in the rear. I'll probably go higher in the rear eventually. I just needed to get the...
I tweaked my ride height a little more. I need as much ground clearance as I can get. I settled on about 25" to the fender up front. 7-1/8" to the pinch seam in the front, 7-1/2" in the rear. I'm not totally in love with the stance. I might raise the rear a bit more at some point. It's...
Here's the importance of shake down runs. This is what happens when a wire routing shifts without knowing.
Luckily it wasn't into the plug yet, just the housing, so it's just a cosmetic issue on my header.
FYI for those that like the lowered look (like I do), the TTI headers are very low with my setup. I measured about 1.9" of clearance.
As much as I like it, I think I'm going to have to go up a little in the front.
A couple points of clarification, anything that condenses in that canister will drain back to the tank whether it be gasoline vapors or condensation (water). There's water in the air, so any water in the air will condense if it cools off enough in the vapor canister. That said it's more or...
I was able to drive the car and get the breaks bed last weekend. They work really well and have no issue locking up the tires. My idle right after crank is fine, but once I start driving it, it goes back up to 2000 or so. Otherwise it seems to run fine. I found a performance shop nearby that...
I went back and forth on this a bit. A roll over valve needs to be higher than the tank. It doesn't really work as a breather though. I'm hoping there's enough volume in my vapor canister that it'll condense before I get gas vapors in the garage. I considered adding a rollover valve to my...
I was also shocked at how much grinding was necessary to fit the starter on my 6.4. A picture like yours would have gone a long way to setting expectations.
I'd have to go back and look at the service manual to know which is which, but 3 are vents from the tank, one is a return line to the tank and the fifth is the return line from the engine bay. I didn't use that last one.
I got the dash installed tonight. One of my vacuum tubes broke off the heater control box. I'd already spent too many hours folded up under the dash so I shoved the tube into the plug and hoped for the best. I'm not in the right mindset to fix it properly right now considering how much work...
I got my diode wired in tonight so now my fans should turn on sequentially instead of the same time. Still need to test it.
I also got my light switch nut, but of course I had to drill out the plastic for the non Ralley style so now it's too big. I painted up a washer and nut while I was at...
Every time I look at something I haven't touched, I realize that it needs work. So I went to put my glove box back in today and instead decided to repaint it.
It's the little things that are going to keep dragging this out.
