lets rethink that

 

I did say "practically". That still leaves room for you Danny.

If I had said "absolutely anything", then you might have a case to complain about, lol!

 

lovin this thread exact info ineeded to get starting on my car next month

 

Shooting for 650hp on E85, so we'll see. My only hold up from completing this build and driving the car out of the garage is the d@mn turbo. FP have been dragging their feet.

Tonight I had to run around town and find fittings to incorporate my Zeitronix 150psi pressure sender into the fuel lines. I will trim the lines down when I install the kit depending on how much space I need.

dont forget that pressure at the outlet of the pump will be different that at the fuel rail because of pressure drop/loss over the length of fuel line

 

Yes sir, I'm definitely keeping that in mind. The pressure gauge is more for logging purposes, and initial start up. I'm running the Zeitronix Zt-2 setup with LCD. I purchased the AMS Remote Oil Sender kit and will run another 150 psi MAP sender. On the LCD, it will show Oil Pressure, AFR, Boost Pressure, and EGT. I will also be maintaining the manual boost gauge for response and redundancy. The LCD should look like this once its set up.



The kit will log all four of these, plus Fuel pressure. For tuning pulls, I think I have all bases covered.

Yea i would asy that you have your bases covered , I was hoping to do the same build your doing right now but i decided to go with a 2.3l instead so when you get the e85 number we can compair if you would like.

 

Since FP can't seem to get the right parts in, KevinD at EvoDynamics came through like a bad @ss and let me borrow a stock turbo for the next week or so. In the morning, all I have left to do is the UICP, intake, boost controller, set the spindles, and fill the fluids. I will try to start it by noon tomorrow.

Once FP delivers the Black, I will swap turbos, and finish up a few things like the BOV, SD conversion, etc.

After spending 18 hours in the past two days, I was finally ready to turn it over around 10 tonight. I was able to get oil pressure but it wouldn't fire up. I'm going to run the codes and trouble shoot it tomorrow.

-Acree

 

Damn, dude. Def keep us updated. When I have to build my motor I'll have a ton of questions for you.

-Jalal

 

Still can't get it to fire up. I have plenty of fuel getting to the rail, I have spark and the ignition system is stock. The engine just turns and doesn't even try to start. No sputtering at all. I don't believe its fired at all. I scaled the original rom for the new injectors and Omni 4-bar, and it didn't work. I downloaded a stock IX rom, changed the injectors and MAP sensor, and still nothing. I'm at a loss at this point.

One more note:

The cam angle sensor is correct, I know for a fact. I had to switch it around early on.
The oil light is off, so I know I have oil pressure.
The SES light is OFF so there no codes.

deng i too shot a rod thru both sides of my block, your build is way siiker then my build. gluck on getting it started bro

 

crank sensor possibly? when i was replacing my motor the first time, that was my problem
