Carpet is 100% done
Water lines are 100% done
Water pump feeds 3800gph of water @ 12 volts and we're running it on 16 volts. Supplying the pump with 1.5" lines.

This morning was uneventful, basically cleaned up around the shop and started working on mounting the oil filter. I'm going to put it in the driver fender behind the tire, should be an easy place for oil changes. Ordered another round of goodies
-Aeromotive fuel pressure guage + adapter - will finish off fuel system
-12 hose for dry sump tank
-10 hose for turbo return to pan
-6 hose for transmission cooler - needed 10 more feet since we relocated it from the front to the water tank in the rear
- 18" of D stock to finish up the steering
- couple misc AN fittings

This week we should be able to:
Button up dry sump completely
Finish oil filter mount + lines
Finish up the Co2 lines for the WG, Boost controller and BOVs
Finish up the brake lines, need to run a single line from front to back for the rear brakes
Start the electrical portion of the build.

Looking great. 3800GPH?! Wow! What kind of pressure drop will you have accross that cooler on the water side? What pressure drop can the pump handle? How are you cooling the water after it passes through the cooler?

Yes its 3800 gallons per hour. Don't know about pressure drop since its it wasn't rated, the water is going to a tank of rock salt and 3-4lbs of ice.

Andy Jensen turned me onto it a year ago....
Goodyear Spiralflex 1600 from MSC
Can't collapse it no matter how hard you try and its pretty lightweight.

Yes, you see plenty of zip ties. You'll also see some fiberglass tape. I needed to tie the hoes up and determine placement of the clamps. Zip ties will come off soon.

Yes, I did everything in my garage. My wife helped out on disassembly and dad helped out on paint.
