Ol’ Blue is Alive Again…
Thought it was about time for an update. Chris & I fired up the engine last weekend and that went pretty good except for a few minor non-serious hiccups.
Apparently the fuel pump didn’t like sitting for the last few years, Aeromotive got us fixed up within a week with a rebuilt A2000, so we’re good to go there. Had an oil pump leak and Nutter is fixing that one for me, so once it gets back we’ll be back in business.
Most of the Nitrous Plumbing is finished now so it’s time to do some flow testing and other odds and ends to figure out a starting point on the Nitrous tune up. Lots of new ideas going on this time around so in a bit of uncharted territory now.
We’re running the new Highpower Nitrous system, it’s a plenum single stage system similar to the old spider plate I used to have. This should be a fun project to see how well it works.
Here’s a video, and don’t be hating on my fancy flip-flops! –
Besides a handful of small projects on the To Do list, the next major one is to get the lexan windows installed which is the next project.
