New Project - Skunkwerks EM9D
Making some progress, right now it is just a mock up from the engine on stand to the engine in car. No matter how many times you measure it you have to change something. I had to flatten the S/C outlet for hood clearance, but I could stand to have a 1/4" more. I had to change the inlet design of the S/C as well, but that is no big deal. The S/C bypass required a minor mod to make clearance for the intake tubing also. Changing the inlet design affected the mounting of the fuel filter, so I need to relocate it as well. Small revisions, no major problems. I need to fabricate or but a new reservoir tank for the A/W too because the turbo to IC pipe hits the old tank. This change allows me to get a bigger tank and more capacity - so a win-win. This weekend I am going to R&R the timing chain, before I swap it out I will check the stretch on the old one for comparison.
Here are a few pics:
