Thanks everybody! Taking care of the little one has been good so far. Of course it is a lot of work but very rewarding, just like working on the car

For KM647, not too much going on, although I wish I was further along to take advantage of the great weather we've had here.
The EFI ECU problem was diagnosed this week as a short in the box itself. They are trying to figure out how it happened so that it won't happen again. I'm waiting to hear from FAST to see what they will do warranty wise... In any case, all the tuning done on the dyno was lost, I hope it won't take too long for the ecu to relearn everything

The box in question


I installed the Kirkham shift lever. Nice piece. It was a real b***h to get the pin out of the stock lever. I'm interested to see how it will be with a vertical lever instead of the original angled design.




Otherwise, I've been "cleaning up" the engine bay with wire holders, hiding wires, etc...

I hope for your sake that it is not that much bigger cause otherwise it won't fit!

Mark, especially if you can drive without using your hands

If so, who makes them?

Thanks,

Paul, B.M.B.C. is correct. They are Blue Thunder Comp covers. These covers are very stout and well made, but I'm waiting for some "Cobra" covers to replace these.
