LOOONG Weekend! Goodbye carb hello EFI!

Let's see...started Friday night about 8pm and finished up Monday Morning about 4am.

Things completed:
  • Hydroboost Conversion. Had to changed the pedal as well. And the lines 'almost' fit. So needless to say this took quite a while.
  • Changed out the rear springs to Tuff Country EZ Rides. The stock ones wwere beat. Bolts on the hanger were completed rusted together. Another fun job.
  • Removed both gas tanks and installed 87 sending units and high pressure fuel pumps. Also ran all new high pressure hose from tanks to selector valve.
  • Rewired the fuel system components to power the in tank pumps. VERY confusing since between 85&87 Chevy decided it would be a great idea to change all the wire colors.
  • Mounted and plumbed the fuel lines for the EFI. Corvette regulator and braided line.
  • Removed the carb setup components and put on all the EFI stuff. The wirng harness I modified actually WORKED!!!!!!

So yah, it was a long weekend, but made alot of progress!!

Friday Night
Sunday Night
