Finally getting started

[hunter1]

Still need to finish wiring the tail end and get the temp sending unit changed. I had an old one hear and it will not work. Guage works when I ground it, but not hooked to the sending unit. Same thing for the oil pressure gauge, though I did buy a new sending unit for it. Engine is grounded in two different spots, so pretty sure it's the sending units. Also, couldn't get the turn signals to work although the emergency flashers did. must be in the column?

Installed a Motorcraft temp sending unit today. Checked temp with an IR heat gun at the sender and spot on at the gauge 190* sitting idling for 30 minutes.

Finally did the Marschariot voltmeter mod. Gauge choice was something I thought would work and look right but doesn't look like the others. I also installed the EFI fuel pump and put my Fitech on. Started but runs crappy. Need to read up on it some to see what I'm missing.

Got the Fitech dialed in with what seems like pretty good numbers now. Smooth idle and quick response off the pedal now without a stumble. Also installed a 1-1/8" bore Corvette MC to gain more brake pedal. Feels good now.
