Cool just let me know, I wanna see an actual dyno pull in person for one and not on a YouTube video

I'm off next Friday and Saturday and they are usually open on Saturday, but I think they might close earlier.

7 Hours 30 minutes total work time and I have the Power steering hard line to work on and the alternator bracket to remove, Then it is time to do the injectors and start putting things back into the car.

Fun Fun Fun...

Steady progress ground to a halt around 6 yesterday. Issues getting the SC bracket to bolt to the motor. Going to pick up a few new bolts this morning.

TBC on next Thursday.
