Here are some of the parts I have to install:

I'm going to order the parts I still need to buy so I can get the motor up to snuff this weekend. I also have a brown sunroof crank on the way.

Thanks

I just order a K&N filter, spark plug wires, battery hold down, coolant line, and another gasket. The injectors are going to witchhunter this week for cleaning.

I still need to send some injectors to Witch Hunter. I'm holding off because I want to pull my primaries and send them out, then send a set of rebuild secondaries I bought a few months ago off with them. I'm waiting because I hear you need to install the injectors within a week or two or receiving them back from cleaning otherwise they can stick open or closed and be permanently damaged.

That actually happened to a friend of mine with a Turbo FC, he bought some used secondary injector and sent them off cleaning (can't remember where), got them back and they sat in his garage for 3-4 months before he installed them. They were both stuck open so obviously they just flooded the motor every time we tried to start it. Took us nearly a week to figure out why the motor wouldn't start haha!

I just picked up an ash tray from the from the pull and save in like new condition and got it installed. I'm now one step closer to having a restored interior.

I'm also in the prosess of getting a steering wheel that is much better than mine.

It looks like the weekend of the 18th will be my big install weekend. I need to send out the injectors tomorrow.

If anyone is willing to help with the install, that would be great. I need all the help I can get with this.

The K&N air filter will be here tomorrow. I'm sending out the injectors today and also ordering the actuators today.

How are you set with tools and space? I'd be glad to help, what should I bring?

I'm planning on doing the work in the driveway, it's concrete. My garage is filled with a galaxie and wood for the stairs.

I think I have all the tools I need. I plan to start this on that Friday. Friday will mostly be disassembly, I'm planning to do the real work on Saturday.

It looks like everything but the injectors and the spark plug wires will be here by Monday. Eric, I'll let you know what's going on thanks.

Ok I've gotten conformations on all the parts I ordered. Everything will show the beginning of next week. I shipped the injectors yesterday and WitchHunter will have them on Monday. Hopefully they can get them done and turned around quick so I can have them back by Friday.

My K&N filter came in.

I got the Atkins Designed Six Port Actuator Valve Kit yesterday. They look as nice as the picture on their site.
