    I'm going to be selling the MOPAR MPFI intake if you're looking for one, I'm using an Eddy intake since i swapped to the Sniper EFI. The hughs is an Eddy intake with a TBI adapter and drilled for injectors, nothing special about it.

    Got a few more small things done oil supply and drain are hooked up, I got the piece of pipe I’ve been waiting on for the drivers bank up pipe so I’ll do that this weekend, I had to cut out a good chunk of my core support to clear tge cold air intake, kinda pissed about that but the car it ant original anyway so I got it cut and mocked up cold air .

    I don't have any pics yet but I braced up the core support so it doesn't move anymore when pushed on. Now I need to get the exhaust system ordered and figure out the down pipe, I'm hoping to have the car up and running soon, then I can work on that rats nest of wires.

    Well MSD strikes again, My 2 yr old blaster 2 coil is leaking oil, now I have to replace the damn thing again. I just went in to do some wire work and found oil of the firewall running down to the floor behind the engine, that's always a nice surprise.

    Well I finally got all my exhaust pieces so I can finish this up, but I got sick and wasn't able to do anything for the past few weeks, which really sucks because now its 112 degrees out now and I really don't want to be out in that working on the car, looks like its time to dig out the roll around AC unit the wife hid somewhere, probably buried in the back of the shed with my luck.

    Wow, just found and read your entire thread.
    Just like my build going on forever. Everything has been done and re-done numerous times.
    Perseverance is word repeated incessantly.
    Step by step is the only way.

    Its been a long run, about 2 years since I started the revamp of stuff and it has been a fight every step. It ran just fine before, added a remote turbo and it ran great, trans went south and thats when the issues started, its finally at the end and I'm hoping to get it running again in the next week or two, just need to drill and install O2 sensors and attach the down pipe to the rest of the exhaust and it should be ready to go, then I'll wrap everything to keep the heat down in the engine bay but I want to make sure everything is GTG before I cover it all up.

    Same with me on wrap. Make sure all works first. Heat control is absolutely necessary.
