Good job Joe.
Congrats! Yeah batch fire dowsnt make the same power as sequential I've been told, never seen it first hand on the dyyno tho.... I picked up a head and cam setup for mine.
Cool! I was fighting a grounded wire on the crankshaft sensor. Once I got a new one it fired right up. It also showed me I had a loose oil turbo feed hose too,haha.

What's the difference in this new head and your old one btw?
Good to hear!!!
I have few more things to adjust and do but the biggest part is now over. I guess 3 1/2 month old 2 gallons of e85 in the car runs it just fine. I'll fill up after Christmas.
Well I went and got gas and my battery didn't charge. My AutoZone special replacement alternator failed. I'll be getting a new one there tomorrow. I'm almost tempted to put a used bosch alternator in. Seems like the AutoZone ones are hit or miss from what I'm reading.
Yes, their quality control is lax. But you get what you pay for. Try napa.

After having a leaking oil feed line and erratic air fuel the car finally drove well today after changing O2 sensor and replacing the oil line and oil cooler sandwich plate. It was fun being able drive it again.
Good to hear you was finally able to drive it. Ready to make some passes now?
Finally have over 500 miles on the new engine. I'm running 17 psi and leaning up in upper RPMs. I'll have to retune and/or upgrade my pumps. The car is making good power on less boost.
That's always good though! More power, less boost! Should run good once you get it dialed in.
I'll probably just add a little fuel pressure until I buy a chip burner. I had my gas wideband go to 12.9:1 which I would like to see around 12-12.5. I'm going to just fixing odds and ends on it now.
Bring it up and we'll strap it down! I just got my block back today.
50 bucks, after this coming weekend. That next weekend I should be able to make some time.
I'll probably try it out on a later date. I'm curious what kind of power it makes though.
If 50 is too high toss me something to cover electric and some time.
50 is fair, I need to get someway of tuning it before I take it. I borrowed a ostrich 2.0 and had a guy burn me a chip last time. I want either of those two things before I make it up. Right now I would only be dynoing at 17 psi. I want to bump that up still.
