that's the nice thing about hoses and wire covers. don't like it? change it.

i love split bumpers. i like them even more when they're body colored. nice job.

Another update.

It's been a long winter but the TPI is cleaned up and on the car. The harness is run into the car but the final power connections are not hooked up. I was waiting on my Vintage Air unit to come in so I could figure out where the computer and relays would be mounted. Thankfully the Vintage Air unit showed up this week and I will now be able to figure out where to mount everything.

However; I did burn an PROM plug in the computer and temporarily hook up the power connections to see if it would run. Sure enough it fired up on the first try. I can't wait to get everything hooked up for good and start driving it again.

Here is all the TPI stuff I picked up last fall from nj85z28.


A little work and paint and it cleaned up nicely


Converted the fuel rail to enter and exit in the rear with -8 line


A teaser mock up shot

No video but the Vintage Air unit and TPI are now mostly complete. The car is running and the TPI needs tuning. The Vintage Air is installed and needs charging. The VA system was purchased from Prodigy and I am using the hidden hose option. Here are some of the progress pictures.

Here are a few more of the VA





I can't wait to get the system charged and see how it works.
