Also. Some recent concerns regarding the mazworx ps kit have come up as there were no instructions or even a diagram that came with it.1. Are these fittings even going to hold the pressure? As some have mentioned these arent PS fittings.. I'm new to these AN fittings... so any input here would be awesome. 2. The fitting i'm assuming i'm supposed to use for the pump side of the high pressure line bottoms out before it even gets close to their "supplied seal".... wtf. Jerry do you have any info on this?

Just got some 94-96 rails and injectors today. Along with the injector harness and the little rubber seals that go on the lower runners. Now i've read the couple threads that talk about doing this conversion and i'm not sure whether I should use the 96 lower seals on the 92 runners (as their outer diameter is a little smaller) or if i should use the 92 seals as you guys were thinking that by lowering the rail down it will seal fine. Has anyone had any issues doing this?

Use the old style lower seals, not the new ones. Use two thin washers between the rails and lower runners at the mounting points instead of the thick black isolator. That's all it takes...

Ok thanks, was mainly wondering if people were having vacuum leaks going that route.

I used a Snap-On smoke tester to pressurize intake and check for leaks... none were present. Good enough for me...

This is the third vh swap build thread I have read through and I have to say that every time I get done reading I want to do this swap more and more. IMO I think this swap is a TON better than any turbo setup on a KA or SR even though VH might be more expensive.I have subscribed.

So do it!Slow progress is going on... managed to clear the bay of most things. Forgot how big of a pain it is to get the main harness out of there with those fuse blocks. Got it all degreased, now just need to wipe everything down with some lacquer thinner and scuff it all up. Along with some other misc. things..

Nice! I love how all these projects turn out like this (mine included). Just an engine swap to start...and then it all goes downhill. Unfortunately I had problems with my Innovative LC-1 (purchased brand new) as well. Sometimes it would work...somtimes it just sits at 22.4 AFR. I did notice a few of the wires being connected to the O2 poorly though so there's a good chance that's my problem. Might as well run it if you've already got it.

Haha thats what happens though when you use it man. Stuff breaks!Dangit... I hope i dont have problems with mine.. Maybe i'll try and put some extra shielding around the wires or something to help with this issue. Seems like everyone i've talked to that has done a VH swap says thumbs down to innovate. I was under the impression they were the best.

I really thought the Innovative widebands were some of the better units when I got mine too. I never even realized that other people had issues with them until I read this thread. Oh well..just install it correctly and hope it works fine.

Exact problem i had with mine, i messed with it long enough for me not to trust whatever readings i got out of it. I dont know if i posted before, but i ended up with the aem uego, it still plugs into a lap top for dataloging and worked fine from start up, and continues to work fine. I hope you have better luck than me .

Yeah i was just reading up on the issue because I'm going to be pissed if this happens. I don't need anymore setbacks.Some people are getting the Error code 8 or something like that which is basically the same as it being crazy lean. Some people were getting it to work by doing a bunch of free-air calibrations, and by a bunch i mean from 6 or 7 up to 20 in a row.. Here's the link i was reading. http://www.innovatemotorsports...=4286 Is that the problem you guys were seeing? I only read basically the first and last page..

No flake. It's BMW Alpine White III with gold pearl in the clear coat. My personal touch.

Did some fab work on the oil pan today. Started mocking up the extensions. Made some measurements and i think i'll have around 30 more cubic inches of space in there. (very roughly).Anyways here's what i've got so far..

WOW! It looks so yummy. Are you going to paint the whole car, and if so, what color?

I want to eventually. It wont be that white but it's tempting as i really like the way it looks. If anyone has ideas or criticism about that oil pan design thus far please pitch in. I'm in unknown waters with this and only going off designs i've been reading about for a while.
My plan so far is to put trap doors where the OEM pan walls used to be. And i'll only have the trap doors as high as the stock windage tray. ABove that will be a piece of steel with a couple large holes drilled into it similar to the extensions on the stock pan, although these were on a much smaller scale without trap doors.
