What did you do to your 2002 today !

[2002#3]

Fiberglass-patched a few holes in the spare tire well of the '70 ti-wannabe project.  Garage temperature was around 40-45 F, so I had to use a heat lamp for several hours.  Worked well.  Prep work:  3 days.  Patching:  30 minutes.  Go figure.

Painted the top of the refurbished fuel tank.

To Do:  Coat the bottom with bed liner or some such durable stuff.

Fired up the Weber

After a long sit...6 months!

Fill float bowl from front opening, then work throttle until gas squirts out of pump jet.

Found a motor from a '72 locally. Picked it up today. Can't feel any ridge on the top of the cylinder with the fingernail test. Head looks good - no crack lines between chambers. I think I did OK. Plan is to build this as minimally as possible to get it running, then do a temp swap with the original motor in my '73. Build the '73 motor for a bit more performance then swap back.

 

I'm glad the Subaru has the spill protector matt in the back!

 

Would you tear down the bottom end or just mic the bores, clean up the head and give it a go?

Took the Turkish princess out for the first time in a couple of months under car cover, 60 mile loop no problems...

Got a few Weber parts for my DCOE's. I was lucky, my Indy mechanic sold me his two Weber jet kits for cheap awhile back.

Should round out the collection,,, for a while  ?

Installed the strut bar I got from Wallothnesch (going to add washers under the bolts next). 

 

 

 

Also finished stripping/repainting and rebuilding my pedal box with a new IE kit.  Then shortly after, discovered my slave cylinder has gone bad, and that it was installed upside-down...

I finished the balanced bottom end, for an upgraded street car.  10:1 121ti pistons (balanced), and other typical goodies.

 

Cheers,

Matt

Horns, yeah.  I had the car pretty far apart, going back together now.

 

As per JimK, Haltech Elite.  Just picked up a few more connectors for the high current stuff, going to keep working on the harness.  Wife is out of town for the weekend, so hopefully wrapping it up...

The horn comment was a joke, what are thoughts about the haltech so far? I’m considering one for my 911.

It seems to be really comprehensive.  It was expensive, but at this point I'd rather have a well thought out, easy to use, very supported system.  I should know more in a couple of days, but I know Jim calls them on a regular basis for help, and they just answer the phone and help...  That's worth money to me.
