My new Rad (Koyo for KA). Fits like it should.
-------------------------------------
since I am lowering the car, I needed to move the wire harness that runs inside the driver side fender.
I removed the fender got rid of the white and black harness holder thingies, hammered as seen in the third pic. I used one hole already there and drilled a hole to attach with zip ties above the ridge. I ran the hood latch cable inside the engine bay through the triangle hole near firewall and along the frame rail.
-----------------------------------------------
I also ran my fuel system using the corvette filter regulator (Wix from Rock Auto). I had to change the configuration of the mounting bracket and used a self tapper to attach under the frame rail.
I used Russell adapter fitting: RUS-640940
I cut down the ends on the filter/regulator and used the factory return line and a new feed that was the perfect size. I removed the hardlines and ran -6AN line up to engine bay. I used heater line with a slit to cover the braided line where it comes in contact with the fuel tank, as not to rupture it.
I will use some heat sleeve where it comes by the header and this fitting to attach to fuel rail: RUS-640853
New Fueled Performance motor and trans mount kit came in. Looks great!!

Well I finally was able to get to the dyno and tune my car. Thanks to PJ and Black Ops Motorsports. My first pull was 432whp and by the end of the day it was 452whp and drivability was greatly improved as well.
Before I went to the dyno I worked on my intake and added an oil catch can. I wanted to make my intake a cold air intake as apposed to a hot air intake. My intake air temps are now 10-20 degrees above ambient, down from 60-80 above!!!
Here are some pics of the mods:
Here is the dyno sheet:

So get yourself a carport. Easy to build and gives some protection. You will miss the car bud!
Btw how are the 3.54 gears oit the back? I have 4.10 in my RX7 and they are almost too much lol

My 4th gear tops out @ 118mph and I have yet to take it to the 1/4 track.....I imagine I will be into 5th gear by the finish
With 3.54's that puts you at 137mph @ 6500 rpm. Perfect I think.
BTW GREAT car and impressive #'s! Are those corrected #'s on that dyno sheet or power at that altitude?

I recently installed an LS6 valley cover with a new design built in PCV valve. This helps with not pulling oil into your intake compaired to the LS1 style that comes off the valve covers.
