Sounds sweet, I'm not into the tractor pull look but I'm sure it will be a conversation starter.

LOL....the hood/air cleaners aren't going to stay like that. The cop who was beside the gas pump when I pulled in last night sure stared it down. I didn't even have the scoop on and everything was sticking out. Luckily(for me), someone had just been murdered across the street.

Had the wiring messed up on the oil pressure sensor connector. I think I corrected that, but the sensor could be shot too. It required some serious modding to fit under/behind the intake.

Actually, I think my mechanical gauge showed 40 psi oil pressure at idle at the filter adapter. That would peg a 275 kPa gauge.

EDIT; gauge is 550 kPa = bad sender

Under the hood:
