stony Posted September 26, 2007 Author Share Posted September 26, 2007 Update: oil cooler/filter relocator is plumbed Gonna take a break and let all the holes in my hands heal up before i make any more hose The oil cooler lines will be clamped to the side of the radiator for anyone wondering Next is the fuel system. Have to mount the new EFI pump/filter, mofify the tank with a return fitting and vent along with install a better sump. the -10 hose is allready run to the engine compartment all i have to do is run the return.

stony Posted September 27, 2007 Author Share Posted September 27, 2007 Got some of the fuel system done tonight :> All the fuel system needs is a -10 so I can hook up the distro block to the supply line, a -8 return hose routed from the FPR to the tank and a vent line installed in the tank. Next comes intercooler piping and a couple odds and ends for hardware and ladies this thing will be almost ready to start up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Careless Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 Looks like you've got a small fortune in AN fittings there. Haha, I counted like 27-29. At no less than 15 bucks a piece, I'd agree. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stony Posted September 28, 2007 Author Share Posted September 28, 2007 Got most of them with the car i got the motor out of. Dip drop about 500 in fittings in hose to finish everything up though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice project and pics. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

synthtk Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Hey stony, where are you going to hook the BOV vacuum line to? Also do you know which spring your BOV uses? Thanks -Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stony Posted November 16, 2007 Author Share Posted November 16, 2007 Line will come from intake manifold and i have no idea what spring it uses. Are you talking spring weight??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
synthtk Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Line will come from intake manifold and i have no idea what spring it uses. Are you talking spring weight??? TiAL BOV's have different internal springs available, they go by color codes and a PSI rating (not boost PSI), Mine had a 11 PSI (unpainted) when I got it and now use a 9 PSI (white) but, the BOV still seems to hardly open and most of the time air surges out the turbos on low boost (5psi and under?). More info, http://www.tialmedia.com/documents/w3_tial_bov50_sp.pdf My guess is you have an 11PSI as it is what is most commonly sold with the BOV, I was just wondering if you had changed it or were running the 11 PSI one without problems. I had never had an issue on my old DSM and its been a bit frustrating thus far. Thanks -Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
