Cool

Sure there is no fitting issue with the Chassis corner/engine bearing in this area?

As stock there is a big bent/dent in the tube and an angle, not straight up first.

Yea, this was just a mock-up. It will fit with a considerable 'angle' to clear the engine mount ear, but for now I just have the filter fitted down below the tin until I find a better solution.

How am I just seeing this thread!? Been wondering how your build is going? Looks like you're near the finish line. Looks great Kyle!

Unless you're browsing the turbo section often, I can see why you'd miss it. I haven't posted much on this thread so it gets buried pretty quickly.

The Sunday start might be on hold..

Yeah I have no reason to be here lol. Well just let me know when you're going to give it a go and I'll swing by!

Injectors clicking? MSII issue?
 

So, partial success but not quite there.

After testing for fuel pressure, oil pressure it was time to fire the engine.

Nothing at first. It would crank but nothing was 'catching'. We checked plugs and got power from the coil, then we pulled an ignition wire to test and got spark. We finally pulled all the plugs and cleaned.

We assumed we had fuel (we had good fuel pressure) but after pulling the plugs we could not smell anything.

Our attention turned back to fuel. Were the injectors firing? We pulled one of the injector connectors and was about to test for power and we turned the key to accessory and could suddenly hear the plugs clicking. Ok, that was new. Put the injector plug back on and the engine came to life. It seemed really rich and then suddenly cut after about a minute or less.


Now we don't get the injector click anymore.


I'm using the MSII relay board. Is there any settings I could be with the new injectors? The injectors don't seem to be firing at all now.
I have power to the relay board, both Hot and switched. When I turn the key to ON, switch power comes on both sides of the injector wires. Ground switched? But when cranking, my helper can't hear the injectors clicking.



Here's what changed with the fuel and MSII changes:

(My base setup is the same one I was just using with the old engine/turbo)

New 60lb injectors from Clewett. (Changed fuel requirement from 7.3 to 5.4)
Changed engine size from 3000 cc to 3200 cc.
Increased the VE table 6% to account for increased displacement.
New connectors for the injectors.

Solved!
 

Issue resolved. I discovered I had the fuel lines crossed, even though I had drawn them out I still managed to eff it up.

Got her started yesterday and took her for a 30 minute drive to start breaking in the rings.

Nice job! Love this build.
