Great Vendor

I have gotten a lot of great parts, technical advise, and service from Marc Swanson at EFIExpress.  Hopefully you'll remember him next time you need something.  If you are building your own exhaust he is the only place I have found to get the headside exhaust flange made from normal steel and if it isn't on the website give him a call because he probably has it anyway.

Next week

I know I haven't been posting a lot lately. Its gets really busy at the end of every quarter at work, but next week I will be on vacation with lots of parts at the house to install.  I still have some exhaust work to do, but everything is here.  On the way is the VEMS computer and multi-disk clutch assy.  If I make it through all of that I can plumb the coolant system.  So there should be some good times on the way.

Accessory Bracket

I went and picked up the bracket this week and snapped a couple of pics for everyone.  Hopefully with the pictures that are already up and these you can see how it all works.

This one is the side profile. If we start on the left side of the picture and move to the right we have the top mounting bolt, alternator boss, 2 mounting bolts, idler pulley support, and power steering bosses.

Here is what you would see from the front of the motor. The left most part curves to match the side of the block.

Well I'm going to go see what I can get done of the exhaust this morning.

Update

Sorry for the really brief update, but work is really keeping me busy for the moment.  I finished the accessory bracket and it is at the powder coaters, pictures will follow.  The VEMS computer and clutch assy are on order.  I think you guys will like the clutch.  It's going to be on the outer limit for a street car, but I want as much acceleration potential as possible.  A new dash system will follow shortly.  I think that most of the major systems are coming together now.  I need to build the exhaust and work on the plumbing layout for the p/s system next.  Later
