Then it was pretty smooth after that. Bad Idea to put 2 thinkers in a room and expect to get anything done :freakin_nuts:.... ask Bob about me and James discussing things before we did the work... wow we wasted a lot of time Capt Quote

sanddunesaddict Posted October 17, 2010 Author Posted October 17, 2010 (edited) Working like hell today from 9 am to 10:30pm.All grounds and power feeds done,all lights done,all guages done,starter done,all engine wiring done and in PCM box. Tomorrow we have to finish the drivers side electrical box and relays,send power and grounds to fuel pump and fans. 95% of the wiring has been soldered and heat shrinked or had a new terminal installed and the right length wire.All connectors have shrink wrap butted up to them and some over them. here are some pics of the mess Got the pipes back from Ceraminc coating and halfway installed. Even had a suprise visit from the wife and daughters today and my 3 year old wanted to sit on the car so here she is my new hood ornament!!!My 18 month old didnt want to stay put for the pic. We are going to try and fire it tomorrow afternoon. Edited October 17, 2010 by sanddunesaddict Quote

ynot Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 DAMM!! looks great Bert! I would hate to have the electrical maze your working on but the pride of doing it yourself and your way will all make up for the blood, sweat and tears! Glad you left a spot for a radio, I think we are all moving towards the radio's as an additional safety factor and you just can't be 2 safe. Looking good dude hope to see you Halloween! Terry Quote

Terry Wiring has been fun to say the least.Jim(Sand~~Snake) was in charge of the engine wiring and pcm and I have everything else.We got done last night and he came and looked at my dash work and then the electrical box on the drivers side which was mine and said he was glad he was doing the pcm and engine as he had diagrams to go off of.I made my own diagrams and strung one wire at a time for each circuit. It will be alot cleaner soon as I get the last couple wires in there and all zip tied up. Quote
dunefreak Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 Lookin good, Bert! Not too much longer now! Quote
