I try to make things look good as well.. Sanitary. I don't mind some wiring that can be seen, as long as it's not a rats nest. The half covers help tuck away things that you just can't completely hide.

Now ya gotta admit.. It's sexy

Had a flub over the weekend that made me do some thinking... Blew a plug out of my oil filter adapter, while cruising through town. It just never occurred to me that they had to be changed.. So many things have plastic in them anymore and I assumed those just stayed unless you wanted to add an...

So they just all the mock up? The thing that works best for me is a list that I see every time I walk into the shop. Helps me stay on track and feels so good when I mark one out.

Shift update... Took the Dart for a spin and everything still felt like it was shifting good, other than a little early, which is expected without the kickdown adjusted properly. So I stopped at a local convenience mart and broke out the Allen wrenches and set the kickdown for full pull at wot...

I had new fuse/relay panel sitting on the shelf that I decided to use.. Over kill with for the trunk with 4 relays and 20 fuses, but i didn't have to buy anything. I just used the fuel pump power feed as a trigger and ran a 12ga directly to the battery and fused it. Drove into work this...

That and manual valve body... Till I 8hp it

Nothing just yet. Driving normal, it's pretty good. It's just when you roll into the throttle, at about 1/4 pedal, it'll give a flash of a kickdown and then resume to normal.. floor it and it doesn't seem to do it. Nick is wondering if there's something going on with the valve body because...

I knew you'd understand lol. I make ALOT of edits because my brain says "trust me, it's good"

ADHD wins again.. my head talks about to many things at once. Sometimes, I'm typing wayyy slower than I'm thinking and my brain has already moved on to something else haha

Went right over my head... wooosh!

I actually misspoke.. factory pump is 8 amps. Good catch.. edited

I agree.. I just can't say with 100% certainty and don't want to lead anyone to false information

I think it might... not 100% on that. The pump runs for a second or 2 when it's keyed on. So I'm learning towards yes. I do have a plan tho.. Since my battery is in the trunk, it'll be easy to run a fused circuit from it to a relay and use the pump power lead from the Sublime panel to trigger...

I was working with Blake on it last night, just to get a grasp of how that panel is laid out. With this panel, the ecm is what kicks the fan relay and uses a oem fan harness. The fuel pump is just ignition on, so it'll be easy. I can do one of two things with it.. use the fuel pump output from...

I'm eager to hear your comparison between the two characteristics... since your previous motor was already pretty healthy. Hoopty had a Slant before going 5.7 and the dart was a 318. So neither one was a shocker when they made me **** my pants

Lotsa words, coming at ya! Overall, yesterday went pretty well. It was good to be driving it again but it did feel really foreign to me after being stick in the Ram all winter. This car always feels so small to me. With the 904 it didn't really feel any different than I remembered, while just...

I just grabbed one from ebay.. Was clean looking and had a guarantee for cheap. I understand where you're coming from tho. Side note: Any 2015 Chrysler Corp, 8 speed car shifter will work, V6/V8, and they all will flip into manual as well. I think the only thing that really changes in the part...

Back to daily driving status...

Sorry but did I see in your spreadsheet that you paid $600 for a shifter?

OK, the dark grey centers have grown on me.. Need to find a few SBP for the fronts now. 245s fit great.. I can get a finger between everything. Pics.. One special Pic for 85glht haha

Plenty of room

Yea, they're fine without a tune but only small gains.. Tune will bring all the power out tho They're not that cheap anymore tho. I caught a good deal on a super low mile take out with lifters.

Hard to keep her out of any car.. Just say the word "cruising" and she runs to the nearest vehicle.

Agreed.. 5.7s are great little motors. I put a 6.4 non mds cam and lifters cam in hoopty with a hellcat oil pump. It's a great no tune option

Got all my ARP studs in the other night, grill and headlights last night and picked up my tires today. Again.. Ford parking brakes can eat a bag of d!cks. They are horrible to get back tofether with axles in.

Should do the trick

I had an early 5.7 in another car that I had similar porting done and decked .030 and ran 6.1 springs. Had to run 6.1 pushrods on the intake side.. Still have a new set of exhaust floating around. Anyway, it was great combo with a mild cam and a 100 shot

I'm sure you're aware of the fitment with the long tubes and the proportioning valve.. what's your plan for fuel delivery?

Nice to see it coming together.. you've been stalking the swap page long enough :lol:
