Annual update time. Sold the BS3 a while back, and bought a Holley Dominator ECU with associated items, harnesses, etc., from Mike at Dayton Performance several weeks ago. The plan for now is to just do whatever I need to get it running. My OCD is just going to have to take a back seat for now so I can make some type of real progress. Rick is helping me with this.My plan is to yank this engine out in the next couple of weeks so I can get the heads finished, put the 2nd turbo drain in oil pan, swap out cam for something more streetable, and just generally button things up with it so I can set it, and the trans, back in for hopefully the last time. Going to get it running with the A4 blocked 347 that's in it now, and put the Chance TH400 and converter behind it. The Glide is going into the corner for now along with the Dart blocked 347. I am going to get it running as-is and keep boost in 10-12lb range while I sort out all the new build issues,etc., that it'll inevitably have. May be a long time before car is "finished" to my liking, but this way I'll at least be able to enjoy it some while the other stuff I want to do to it, gets done. I have no set date or anything for when I think it'll be running, I'm jut going to work on it when time allows until it gets to that point.
A pic just so I can say I updated thread with one.
