Well, time for an update seeing as I have 2 weeks off for the Holidays and need to make a big push to have this bug on the road for spring 2011.

Dash before: (needed to install a kickin stereo in high school :shocked:)

-8 line from the fuel tank to Aeromotive canister filter (100 micron), and then -8 to the swirl tank, -8 feed to the Bosch 044 fuel pump. Still need to run a -6 line from pump to regulator in the back, and then a -6 return line to swirl pot.

Front end complete except for plumbing up the brake / clutch hydraulics. The lines have been run, just need to terminate the fittings. Lanner is working on the new splindles, current ones are temporary so I can move the chassis around.

Need to spend a few days fixing the rust in the rear area before I can place the body on the pan, and work on the heater channels.

Nice work! I'm guessing you're going to repaint the whole car?

Sandeep,

Nice job!

Only to show you an interesting solution that is being born in Brazil.
Full touch 4,3" realtime programmable or by computer. (This is not only one display is full programable injection)
