Time for the quarterly update :) I did make it to Moab and back nearly un-scathed. I came within 5 minutes of turning around 40 minutes after we left. It was really puking and dieing climbing the mountain passes. Dallas noticed it was belching black smoke and after a few stops to tweak the fuel and timing maps with the laptop, it got much better and pretty drivable.

Never had the time to get the intercooler or water injection hooked up, and I had to baby it the whole way. Anything over 7 or 8 psi and I'd get detonation. It was a workload to drive there and back.

I did loose the water pump pulley / rad fan:

The fan was balanced, but it is seriously heavy. Like about 15 lbs??? I was concerned the bearings in the pump may not handle it, but it ended up that the pulley is a press-fit onto the pump shaft and that gave out with the weight of the fan slung off the front of it so far. I spent Sat in camp swapping 2 pumps out 3 or 4 times and ended up leaving the fan off and getting the biggest electric I could find in town to get me home.

I started out swapping the electric fan for a Taurus fan in a custom shroud (details here) 6 weeks ago and ended up pulling the whole top end of the motor off again. Just wanted to inspect the IC core and the SC rotors ( I was seeing 300+ degree intake temps on the drive to/from Moab !!!). I'm also getting the IC hooked up and was gonna get the water injection nozzles installed as well. I also got the wiring harness all loomed on the motor so it looks a lot less booty-fab :)

I still need a nice fuse/relay box and I'll be able to finish my wiring and looming on the body. Thinking of propane instead of water injection too...
