Welcome, about time;D I can say that mine runs for thirty minutes at a time:-[ My new efi freind is to cool---looks like the demon is a jacked EEC relay. Ran it for 20 min then started to pull the electrics down from under the dash. Just as I was removing the last screw holding the board with the relays the thing shut off! Sweet--- The board was hot as hell, EEC relay light was off, while my new freind was doing his thing with his volt meter, he said feal this meaning the board---it was cool but the EEC relay was still pretty warm, he said voltage in and ground was good---it's the relay. OHHH what a relief. He will change it out with a standard relay like i use in the rest of my systems. The boards relays are hard wired---soldered. I hope I have'nt woke murphy up, I keep my fingers crossed.

Super, let me tell you times flying by like i'm standing still---i know better. after yesterday bs my colon is definitly dragging on the ground and it sucks. The efi guru is stopping by the shop tommorrow to take a look at my work, he told me it's easy---ground issue, bad ecu relay, and so on. At least if i'm lucky it won't hit me on that draggin colon where my wallets connected to!:)

I heard that.. I converted to the cheby throttle body efi set up when I picked up my 76, decent price, but for some reason didn't work as well as other folks right off the bat, Always something....

75.5" top of cage at seat back

54" top of bed rail at rear door opening

10.5" bottom front diff

19" bottom skid plate

Your cage is short! Only a 1" difference on the bed rail, but 4.5" at the top of the cage...

Hmm... I'll re-measure. My cage is built so that a soft top will fit over it, but there's not THAT much room for it to fit. My cage does have a small rake to it also - rises from windshield frame to the rear, so the middle is a good average, and the rear isn't an inch higher maybe than the middle.

You've seen how big I am - trust me I didn't make it any smaller than I had to!

Mine fits with the hard and soft top too...but it pushes up on the soft top where I measured.

Well, unlimited funds no, but building my pile of parts quicker these days. As for the all star build crew, I think I've got some pretty awesome backing there. Patience Master Monster Mike... Rome was not built in a day, and neither was your Bronco! ;)

Figment huh? :) I think someday, hopefully sooner than later, you'll see this race girl giving you a run for your money in her very own dream machine! ;D

I Thought race girl would give away my sense of humor, its a hotty womans clothing line. Maybe a bit dry OK, but did not in any way direct anything negative toward your build. FYI my build took over 4 years to complete. Mark
