Reply to "EFI conversion of my Spyder"

Moving on to today's work...

I first removed the old and then installed longer studs so I could mount the vacuum adapters and the throttle bodies. Torqued them to 18 ft. lbs.20210222_13510520210222_135718

Then I moved on to linkage and the IAT(intake air temp) sensor. That was a fun bit of fabrication. I took a water temp sensor and hid it under the air filter base. Then used an aluminum acid brush to extend the sensor. I drilled some ALB holes in it, not for lightness, but for heat transfer. I used a little JB Weld and crimped the tube in place on the sensor. It should read the air passing into the stacks.20210222_19382220210222_19382920210222_201201

It's a standard GM sensor, the calibration is already in Tunerstudio. No big deal if it's not, you need three temperatures and resistance readings.

After that I moved on to the crossbar linkage. I had purchased new downlinks a while back so installed that.20210222_215444

It snowed today. Again. I got a lot done, even if it doesn't really look like it.

I guess tomorrow I'll get to the plumbing and wiring LOL!
