I just posted some new info I'd never heard before in the engine section.

We'll see how the nitrous section goes over time. My car's engine still is waiting on my builder to get to it. He's going to go through it just to make sure all is well and maybe fresh'n a few things.

I'm taking this down time as an opportunity to get some EGT bungs welded in my headers so I can start logging some EGT data to go along with my O2 info.

I also am looking at building some custom delay timers for use with nitrous solenoids. We'll see where that goes.

I didn't realize you were that close to having it ready to go. Sheez, good thing I didn't bet you on who would get their car running first :o

I have the crank and rods in, got that finished up this weekend. Had to order a few more parts after I realized I couldn't braze a new screen on my old oil pump pickup. I should have the motor done soon though, then all I'll have left to do is the front suspension.

Great message board! I am overwhelmed with the imformation here! I look foward to discussions and learning from all of you. Cant wait to get to theNOS section, maybe I will be able to keep my engine from the dredded trips to Lennart and Birgitta Bergqvist for the costly repairs.
