I didn't get much done yesterday. I had a corvette to install some headers + mid section and a vararam. Got most of it done, needed to order some o2 extension harness's.
We worked on the dash(racepak) for a hour and got it very close to the final panel. Took an hour for lunch and came back to work on the motor plate. I welded the -16 bungs on the motor plate only to find another problem. With the size of the -16 fittings we can't run the alternator up top, no way to get the belt around the fittings.
Ken came over with his Trans-camaro-bird and we did some tuning on the juice last night found out he was pig rich on the kick, he pegged my wideband 10.0:1 or richer.
Got back to the garage and I did some work on the alternator mount. I'm going to try and mount it under the fuel pump which should work. It puts the alternator right infront of the steering rack and .500" above the K-member. I made the adjuster/c bracket that fits around the alternator and a spacer so it sits flat on the adjuster. This weekend I'll work on mounting that piece onto the motor plate.

Didn't get much done today, got the rest of the -16 fittings. Ended up finding them for 14 each and found enough -16 hose to do the system for $20 from a local suppler that had a 6 foot section left over. Got the Meziere water pump mounted up and the supply line started, its a 1 7/8" tube. Also picked up the correct size belt for the alternator.

Phil, did you check with Meziere about the mounting location of the pump? It looks to be higher than the bottom on the rad. May have some issues with it there as they say to mount it as low as possible in reference to the bottm on the rad tank.

1) Ensure the inlet is lower than the outlets
2) Make sure its not the highest point in the system
My car is using a double pass radiator and the water pump is about level with the center of the radiator.

Knocked out a couple of projects today.
- Wastegate dump tubes
- IAT bung
- WIdeband Bung
- Throttle cable bracket
- Racepak mount
- Vacuum pump bung
- Radiator 100% done welded second -16 bung onto inlet tank
Wideband bung
Shortened downpipe - still needs to be cut 3-4" and get a 5" v-band into a 18" section of MS 5" tubing and will transition to 5" aluminum tube
Wastegate dumps
Wastegate dumps bottom
