Here is the basic layout of the center console, currently I just have everything kind of sitting in the radio hole, but will someday make that nicer and secure it all. It fits pretty well in there right now, but need to redo the whole console. When I do the sound system and rest of interior I'll deal with this stuff.

Those extra switches in the tray were from the 83, only the two tiny rockers actually do anything. One is for glow plug and one for hi/low boost. In that car I had a 8" screen in the center console so had to move all the switches down.
So now the plan is to put the original 2.82 350SDL differential back in, weld on a downturn tip for exhaust (soot on ass), and figure out what to do about the injectors. I had the local Bosch shop set these up for 150 bar with new nozzles, but it is starting to feel some light missing when cold, could be bad spray pattern already. After a couple thousand miles they are also still really loud, so may not be set to 150 or have slipped way down since setting up. I'd like to have new ones built with good nozzles and well balanced to see if that helps. Anybody know of a good injector builder? What are the best nozzles, I was thinking of Firad? If I can't find somebody to build them I'll get the equipment and do it myself, but then will have to find a good place for the shims.
Some updates. I checked timing with the tool, was exactly at 8, so the vision method works perfectly fine. I set it at 10 ATDC and it didn't change much. Still more smoke than would be expected when alda is right on the edge of the car barely starting and barely on it, my new theory is the 2.47 causing high low rpm load combined with poor injector spray quality may be the cause.
