Wow, for a while there I was beginning to wonder if anyone really cared! I'm glad to see that people are still interested.

I kind of got side tracked with life, work, and life. Basically, I have her slightly torn down and that is where she has sat for a while. I was on target to make 8-10 psi with the current setup and started running into a misfire at around 4,500 RPM. So I decided to pull all 12 plugs and gap them tighter.

THEN I decided to pull the valve covers and give them the same treatment as my intake manifold.

THEN, I decided to bump up one size with the IC to a full 3" design.

THEN, I got caught up in an idea to get more wrap on the drive pulley.

Basically, I made it as far as one half of the motor - plugs pulled, re-gapped, cover reinstalled. I also modded the other cover to make room for the larger IC and painted it up but haven't re-installed it yet. Everything is in for my new3" IC tract as well so I have that to put on and test.

As part of that, I had ordered a really nice MAF section but the hole for the sensor is not the right size. So I'll be going back with the stock MAF. The stock unit is a better way to go anyway but I was seeing a little deformation of it due to tightening up the t-clamps too much. I'll have to go a little easier on it in the future.

I hope to get back on it after the holidays but right now it is way too busy around here! The motor is going to look really nice with just the IM and valve covers painted! They are the ugliest parts when you really get to looking at it up close, but man do they clean up nice or what?
