I got one I downloaded for him but it is a '94. Should be close enough.

Don’t use a '94 manual for a '93. They are NOT close enough.

Tried to start it today but I am not getting fuel. ☹

Spent about 8 hours out there today and got almost nothing really finished. Had to pull the steering rack and modify it. Just to make it so I could turn the steering wheel with the new headers. What a fucking joke those things are. Motor cranks and sounds fine but no fuel pump. After two hours of trying to get it running I gave up. Exhaust is on and finished but I can hear banging on the driver side so I still have to mess with that. Joy

You can kinda tell here but I have the front suspension back in 100% But I am not putting the car on the ground until the exhaust has all the kinks worked out and the car runs so I can check for leaks and such.

Thanks man!

As soon as I figure out the fuel pump issue then I have to finish the install of the rad expansion tank, do the rest of the interior, then little things like bleed brakes and move wiring. I will get it up and running then I will worry about finishing the nitrous, heater, 2-step, line lock, etc etc etc etc!!!

In a few days once inspired I am going to attempt to run a wire right from the pin on the ecu to the relay and move the relay from under the hood to the back. Then I will run a new wire leaving the relay to the fuel pump harness. This is my best guess at solving the issue. I am going to test the pump first but I doubt it quit working.

Yeah I probably should but we are generally pretty careful in our madness.

I am going to ditch the tape soon actually just because i am sick of looking at it. Any suggestions on some nice fender blankets?

I think I bought one at Summit in Ohio for like $20

[http://www.summitracing.com/search/Department/Tools-Shop-Equipment/Part-Type/Fender-Covers/?Ns=Rank|Asc&RC=25](http://www.summitracing.com/search/Department/Tools-Shop-Equipment/Part-Type/Fender-Covers/?Ns=Rank%7cAsc&RC=25)

Buy today, ships today - they’re foam so it’ll take a pretty solid “oops” to mess up the paint. My buddy dropped a 1/2 full fifth of Jack Daniel’s green label on his '69 Barracuda notch and the only thing ruined was our buzz.

Thats why you need several sources of backup booze. I am going to see if I can get some 15x8 wheels first and if not I am going to make one order on monday with some covers and wheels.
