What a day!
Lots done, not many pictures.
Injector wiring & Install...check.
Airhorn & carbon fiber airbox backing plate install...check.
Coolant re-route install...check.
Valve cover & Toyota Coil On Plug install...check.
PCV & breather lines...check.
Installing the injectors correctly took forever. I lost a lot of time due to the injector retaining clips and not understanding how they actually install. I walked away from it many times and would come back after a while. Very, very frustrating. i finally figured it out, and at that point it seemed so simple. (Edit: I spoke to Gary at TWM about this on Monday, in his words, “yeah, you and about 4,000 other people. We should write some instructions one of these days”. Note: Install the clips onto the injector, then install the injector, then rotate the clip into the locking position.
Dealing with a headache all day and fighting off a cold certainly didn’t help at all either.
Still some finishing touches to do, including:
Finalize radiator install and attach hoses, fill system, etc.
Make a custom mount for the breather tank
Pressurize and test fuel system
Cobble together an intake/filter system
START IT!
That should hopefully all get done tomorrow!
