ordering my B&M pro ratchet stealth on monday
got the carpet all back in and most the plastic besides the console. along with my corbeaus
Also used a generic pinto manual rack and made my own mounts on the k-member as well as custom machined te rod sleeves, 5/8 rod ends and custom aluminum spacers for a home made bumpsteer kit. waiting to final weld everything till my racecraft steering shaft kit gets here.
should work out better than the stock power rack looped and a less than optimal steering shaft setup
All thats left on the car is to wire the fans, Install the new Th400, bleed the brakes, and install the single plane. basically a weekend of work

very nice... love the wheel/tire combo. contemplating on painting my ss black.. cause black looks soo mean..
nice work. just curious on the abs delete.. what portioning valves are you running. i see those all the time on here. arent they adjustable portioning valves? what would you adjust them to?

im running the sjm manufacturing kit with wilwood proportioning valve. the valve adjusts front to rear braking bias. if your running big meaty slicks and little skinnies up front you can adjust some of the braking toward the rear to the tires that are gonna grip to keep the front from clamping so hard and potentially skidding
hubba hubba!

the pics above were from last nights dry fit. I got the single plane completely on and sealed up for good distributor in, valve cover back on all the lines and sensors plugged back in and started changing the cold side a little today to fit the new setup

got my tunnel mount adjustable torque arm on.
big thanks to OldBlu and his buddy for a killer deal on a brand new never even bolted up TA
Got my shifter installed finnally along with the linkage and cable all set up properly. This was probably the biggest pain in my *** on the whole car due to shitty instructions from B&M and a shifter thats made to fit like 10 different transmissions with pulling a pin here, adding a pin there, this bracket for this, spacers for this no spacers if its this. Finnaly got it all figured out with enough trial and error.
got the piping all changed up to fit the new setup, fuel rails and lines all bolted up. just need to mount the map sensor somehwere now and run a vaccuum line to it as there is no longer a provision in the manifold itself.
whats left: relocate coil and extend wires, install oil pressure sensor, and start t00ning!

haha I know but ive got a going away party to go to so im about done working on it for today.
It already runs how it is. has a startup and idle tune on it. I just want to move my coil away from the FAST just to be safe. and add a oil pressure sensor nto my digital dash as it reads info from the FAST and the FAST doesnt monitor that.
