Couple of updates. Got in a new Aeroforce gauge,, want it for water temp and oil pressure as it displays two items at once. Plugs into the OBD-II plug to scan for information,, pretty slick. The plan is to mount to the right of the gauge cluster.

Got the E85 sensor in,, will wire it into the harness this weekend. I’ll need to rethink the fuel hoses in the engine compartment a bit though. I’ll have Overkill Motorsports do the tune for it.

My Racer-X front LCA’s should be here tomorrow. These are nice pieces, a little pricy compared to some but they allow for adjustment of camber and caster on the car. The good news was they were 10% off on Labor day. Fingers are crossed that I get the room I need for the sway bar. Also, I’ve been researching sway bar rates a bit trying to figure out where I want to be,, target is low 200’s which is a bump over the stock 140lb bar. Think 20MM bar. A lot depends on the arm length which I’m a bit uncertain of at the moment. Picture below shows my rebar mock up,, note the space between the front of the cross member and the rear of the oil pan.

Got the lower radiator hose worked out,, it’ll be much cleaner than the original setup. Still need to weld in a bung on the new hard line to connect to the bottom of the surge tank but haven’t figured out where just yet,, not a lot of room. I also have to change the two hard lines coming out of the motor that connect to the heater hose bungs on the firewall. With the new hard line that routes below the alternator,, the old one no longer fits. It’s always something LOL.

Cleaning up the engine harness a bit. The problem was where the PCM ended up there was way too much wire coming out of the plugs it made a big mess. I pulled all the wires back into the harness to tidy it up some. I’m also rerouting a few sensor wires at the same time. Need to get this finished and wired into the chassis.
