Wes,
I haven't done too much to the car in the last year. There have been a lot of other things on my plate.
One thing I did was to install a water injection system to clean out carbon in the cylinders. As you know, detonation is the biggest concern in a forced induction application and carbon buildup in the cylinders can be a problem once you boost.
The system is hooked up to a vacuum switch right now. It is very transparent. Later, I will hook everything up to a boost switch.
The engine is still strong at 230k, but the Level Ten rebuild is getting old. The transmission shifts ok except for the notorious 2-3 shift. Sometimes it shifts crisp; other times it lags.So a new transmission is in my future.
I have to finish remodeling my house and take care of some other things right now.
I have most of the parts for my turbo kit, but I need still need some more things. One thing I want to buy next is the Innovate LM1 so that I can tune everything properly.
I can't tell you when or if things will get done, but I am not too worried about it.
