ACT HDSS

ALMOST DONE!! Just a little more wiring, re installing the axles and wheels, routeing the vacuum lines to the BOV and WGA and tapping the fuel line for the gauge

Looking good man! I bet you can wait to get it on the road and broken in. You have such a badass collection of cars.

 

[M4N B4G]

Can't wait should be starting it today or tomorrow. Im going to post video hopefully of the start up and first drive

 

[hornsfan10609]

Those hard pipes look very nice and welded. Did you custom make them?

 

[boostedprotege]

Lookin hella clean!! Get some vids when she runs

 

[SeR_Cyclops]

Looks good man

 

[M4N B4G]

IT LIVES HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! Thats me sitting in the drivers seat! The fuel system hadn't primed thats why it didn't start right away. The fuel leak was where I have the gauge sender fitting. Don't worry I've already fixed it. And yes the exhaust is dumping at the downpipe (headbang). Oh and I named the project Fast Orange because the car is obviously orange and the amount of fast orange hand cleaner I used during this build.

It's the Corksport FMIC that I had the BOV flange welded on, painted the whole system semi-gloss black and wraped the cold pipes and painted that black as well with silicone sealant

And to SeR_Cyclops I have to break in the engine for 500 miles before I can rip down the street

 

[hornsfan10609]

Well it looks damn good. Congrats on getting it running.

[M4N B4G]

Should be posting more videos once I finish breaking in the engine

 

[HKPRO5]

It's been like two days! You don't have 500 miles yet? =)

Can't wait for vids!

 

[M4N B4G]

I just had the exhaust attached to the down pipe this morning. Gonna try to get a drive by vid or somthing. Yeah I think I might go down to Corksport in Vancouver WA to put some mles on it and also show them how my exhaust shop had to fix their 80mm exhaust to get it to hang right! Seems when they added the cat they didn't realign the mid pipe flange in the correct spot cost me $45 extra on top of the downpipe flex install so it ain't a big deal but the tip melted my bumper a little bit before I pulled the motor too. I think I might go on friday. Haha

You ask I supply. Here are some driveway vids. One of the interior and one of the exhaust note. On the first vid the trip odometer says 89.2 that is how many miles I've put on it since the build

dang nice build!

 

[M4N B4G]

And here was the "click" from the piston actually tapping the crank because the bent rod changed the clearances. I think I was lucky as hell it never threw that rod.
