Re: PO has me PO'd

Thanks Cap., the family is all excited...my sons comment to me was, Dad, can you teach the girls how to rebuild cars like you taught me....

Just found out that i have to use a crank trigger, thats what the crank lead was for, oh well add that to the list

Plans changed, all the leads will run down the left side of the motor. Its not too bulky

Hey dale 99, do you know what the sensor does in post 1935, its the one to the left of the temp. unit, brass piece goes into the water passage. I dont have any wires going to it....

The brown one. That looks like it would be for the cold start injector... I think. Something maf cars had, not map. I think you could remove it.

Re: PO has me PO'd

Ok can you butcher a NOS part, luckily it wasnt a 67-72 part! Had to find a place to mount the MAP sensor, its pretty close to the oem location. It will be mounted on the overhang of the cover plate, underneath
Now i just have replacate the three mounting holes along with a shoulder cut. Should be a challenge to make the relief cut. I know its going to want to walk on me!

Waiting for the crank trigger mount to be drop shipped in from Mallory

Sorry to say, but even AC DELCO has parts made in China. Disappointed!, to say the least

Re: PO has me PO'd

That rear cover is different then mine, but I guess cause that was a maf system.

Putting it under it would give it a nice hidden location!!

At one point, I had made a bracket to cover the egr hole in the middle of the base intake, and hold the map sensor at the same time.

Dont know, bought it off of ebay, from a chevy dealer...
Now you have me thinking of building my own EGR cover
Finished up the cover this morning, just have to mount the MAP sensor

Re: PO has me PO'd

Ok, got the MAP sensor mounted up, and plugged in...onto the crank trigger and wideband O2 sensor. Glad i bought the transfer punches, made transferring the holes alot easier

Could be a problem with the mount of the crank trigger, well see

Re: PO has me PO'd

Installed trigger mount, of course some problems...the bottom support bolt hits the block, they provide spacers to correct this, but i want to use the spacers only for the in and out of the crank trigger
So, i have another idea...
I will be using studs to mount the bracket to the block
Top bolt needs thread sealant, as this one goes directly in the crankcase
Anyone need a new fuel pump, you pay shipping....


20121214_113554 by jarosaj, on Flickr

Ok, heres the problem...the guide hits the block(threaded portion), really snug fit, so i plan to cut off some of the threads. Counter bore bracket slightly, about an 1/8", cut a groove in the guide for an E clip. Then the guide will be level with the bracket
The adjusting rod really keeps the guide in place, but the E clip is just added insurance

Re: PO has me PO'd

Alright, bought the 1985 only, air temp. SEN- 601,since the company wouldnt sell the connector w/o pigtails ( didnt want an unnecessary splice ) side note, fast sells sensors for less

Sensor is for a 305 cu.in., ive got it going in a 350 cu.in., hope that doesnt cause problems in the future...

Thank goodness for smart sons with a bridgeport, stopped down for the holidays, and showed him the problem i was having with the water neck not fitting up. With the o ring design on the outlet, it interferred with the intake....his solution was to ship it to him and he could machine the intake allowing the outlet to shift over and align with the studs. Still taking advantage of the swivel oring design. Sweet! Dang smart kid there....

Re: PO has me PO'd

You can see it in this pic, intake comes in real close to the water neck. Cant be more than a 1/8", but it might as well be a mile if you cant bolt the part up

Re: PO has me PO'd

Finally got to play with the wifeys christmas presents.....

I did have an ah ha moment in relation to the ecu mount, more on that later

The ignition box isnt going to work there, soo, i plan to use the isolation mounts jegs sells. They just give you enough clearance on the curves of the inner fender to mount it there, using the jegs mount for the ignition box.
I should say that im not sure how the isolation blocks will handle the constant strain of tension and compression. Ill contact the manufacturer, and see if they have any input

Crank trigger and wheel are mounted up, just have to get the oreintation to tdc. Plug and play! Last sensor to deal with is the O2 sensor

Yeah, that and the fact the mounting holes didnt line up with my vortec intake, or i did something wrong which is possible

I may continue the cut further, to get more of the coil weight further into the bracket, dunno

EDIT

Sorry bk 04, didnt notice you slipped that question in there...in the future, i will be building a higher hp engine, and was told it will give me a more accurate signal, since i was doing all the modifying of the wire harness, just thought it was a good time to upgrade

I have the dual sync distributor, which allows me to run sequential injector timing instead of bank to bank. Bank to bank would fire twice, which would put unused fuel in the combustion chamber, so sequential would put fuel in only when firing the plug.

Timing is controlled by the cam and crank position

Nope, standard sbc bolt pattern, and vortec pattern is different.

Sorry, just got to wrapped up in my build to reply. This wiring has all my attention. Cut the oem engine harness apart, to bring the wires down the drivers side of the engine, and run power wires for the ignition box

This nerve racking, trying to mount a non oem part, but still have a pleasing overall look. I hope they look good where i placed them

Plan to contact M&H to see if they will sell me a full piece of channel to hide the wiring harness going across the firewall

Bought the other half of my coil connector from TPI Parts, now just have to splice in the double connector

Orange and Black go to the coil
Red goes to 12 volt switched
White goes to points wire in the fast harness
Grey goes to the tach lead
Yellow has voltage off of pink, and goes to starter solenoid
