We made lots of progress on our ERA today. Got the following completed:
1) Installed the driveshaft, driveshaft speed sensor (see picture below) and reinstalled the driveshaft safety loop and handbrake mechanism.
2) Installed the speedometer cable
3) Installed all of the grounds on the motor and transmission
4) Installed the throttle cable and adjusted the throttle linkage
5) Installed the MAP sensor and connected it to the TWM intake
6) Made all of the fuel lines and connected them (see picture below)
7) Hooked up the
oil pressure,
oil temperature and water temperature gauges
8) Reinstalled EFI stacks that were removed for installation of the motor.
9) Reinstalled all of the EFI sensors that were removed for installation of the motor.
Here's a picture of the completed trans and driveshaft - note the driveshaft speed sensor on the differental yoke.
Here's a picture of the reassemble and plumbed TWM intake on the motor in the car.
A shot of the fuel lines and throttle cable assembly. ERA made the throttle cable easy for me my providing all of the hookups to their linkage. All I had to do was to connect the cable to the bellcrank in the middle of the TWM intake.
Tomorrow we'll do the water pump, alternator,
oil filter, oil lines, prime the oiling system, and set the distributor timing for the EFI system. If it goes well, we may get the cooling system installed also. We're getting close to the point where its time to start building the EFI wiring harness.
