getting closer
My first turbo build is inching along.. Holley tapped for vacuum. End casting tapped for the CB black box. IAT and wideband bungs welded. Removable apron almost done. Just got most of the fittings for the fuel system. I'm going to try to run it without a regulator. The fuel pump puts out 7psi so I''m hoping the carb can take it. I'll need to make a bracket for the accellerator cable once I figure out which one I'm going with. Also hoping my stage 1 plate and racing daiken hold. We shall see. Enjoy the pics.

Re: getting closer
Thanks Nate. I have no idea what I'm doing. I just hope it doesn't blow up when I start it. Fingers crossed.

Re: getting closer
It won't blow up starting it,, Just keep a sharp eye on the A/F ratio gauge!!!! when boosting :wink

Re: getting closer
It's not an AJ engine. The header isn't from him either. Neither is the carb. I've been collecting parts and cobbling this together over the last few years, and doing everything myself. Does this vac/boost line diagram look right?

Re: getting closer
Almost there! On the home stretch. Just power to the gauges, throttle cable, check the fuel system for leaks and make sure the black box connects. Soooo close.

Re: getting closer
Having issues getting the laptop and the black box to connect. Windows wont let me change the driver. Eventually I'll figure it out... I hope.
