Blower installation day is today!

rao · 05-12-2000, 05:24 AM

I will have all of the parts this morning (Friday) and I will be putting it on startinga round 11 to 1 (later if there are problems). Sorry about the short notice. If any wants to check it out, you're welcome to come by.

[I will be removing the address later - gone]

For those who asked, I am using an old fashined analog camera.

8Complex · 05-12-2000, 06:14 AM

Doh! I won't be able to hit there til like 7-ish. Well let us how it goes and we'll just take pictures after it's all done. That and some roasty 4-wheel burnouts would be cool, LOL.

rao · 05-12-2000, 06:22 AM

Are you kidding - 7 is my bedtime! If it isn'd totally done by 4 pm I will start tomorrow am early.

I'll bring it Sunday and you can take all of the pics you want

greg · 05-12-2000, 06:33 AM

forget the pics we all want rides if its in by sunday!!!!

8Complex · 05-12-2000, 07:19 AM

LOL well it'll definetly be cool to check it out on Sunday then. I think you're going to be taking people for rides like crazy, though.

What is the break-in period for the kit & your engine after you install it, BTW? Another one of those good questions noone has ever asked... LOL

rao · 05-12-2000, 07:02 PM

About 80% done, will finish tomorrow.

Many,many thanks to Revision and Kyle for their help.

There are some wild and crazy stories to share and some mildly painful cuts and bruises on our hands.

Future note:
never hang body weight off the accessory drive belt w/o gloves.
Soldering irons melt through plastic. Starting the car with a shirt stuffed in the intake manifold is a no no.
Dropping the intercooler is bad.
