Looks good to me...

Make sur eyou let me know if you need any help or have any questions.
Oh, and make sure you get it all running before December!

Don't forget to add on extra money for the misc. things that always crop up... stupid little crap like oil, antifreeze, hose clampe, silicone, rtv, anaerobic sealer... all that stuff and more adds up to a few hundred bucks.

Awesome. I plan to get it done before december. I really hope my ECU isn't bad, cause I never did come anywhere near solving my terrible misfire problem. Surely between a (basicly) new engine and a completely new fuel system, the problem will go away. If it doesn't, that means its ignition because thats the only thing I'm not replacing (well the whole ignition system has been replaced, minus the ECU). So if it's still misfiring, it's cause the ECU is bad and it's messing up my ignition. If so, I am going to have the megasquirt run my ignition as well. Thanks for your input.

Check out this mess of wiring..





I think I've forgotten where most of these wires go already. I assume this is a typical thing however. Check out some more pics on my site, www.team2nr.com
