finally finished the efi tunnel ram I made. started as a weiand tunnel ram, and converted to fuel injection and will be using the Fast EFI ecu and handheld. Hopefully this weekend I will get a chance to bolt it on the fepower adapter and start it up.. I will video it from the setup to turning the key.. Im stoked. Im using the Fast efi 302000 harness kit, and since I have the ez efi already I can use the ecu and handheld and set my parameters :). Here is some pictures of the tunnel ram with the harness to see how it fits

got the intake sitting in place ready to wire up.. I need a few new bolts as this intake is different then the torker.. ALso need a longer throttle cable. Next weekend should be nicer out and can spend more then an hour or so in the garage

No idea what you mean.... this is a super cool project. I'm sure we've all been watching you get this engine built over the last few years. Personally I think it's the definition of "Fe Power" and out of the box hot rodder thinking.
Can't wait to see it blasting down the strip! Good luck
-
Don't delete anything! This is cool stuff, and I'm anxious to hear how it works out...
-
X3 on the don't delete list. I think your project is way cool. Lots of low buck do yourself things that are appreciated by me and others I'm sure. Member projects are one of my favorite things on this forum, especially the "oddball" stuff you don't see every day.
-
thanx guys.
-
delete ? I don't understand . good stuff .
-

The only thing that should be deleted is ^^^ that comment...lol
Low-buck, home made projects are cool. I love your ingenuity and lack of off-the-shelf big buck parts. That's what made hot rodding what it is! Just stay safe; fuel fires and brake problems have killed many a project, so remember...
-
agreed , we seem to learn more about safety as we get older or we don't get older , in one piece anyway .
-
safety is priority no worries there. it will get safety certified to drive on the street here in NS. :) All new brakes,lines,fuel lines and fuel related parts.
-
well finally got the intake finished, and started. It leaked in a few places so redid it all.. Anyways,, finally got it fired up and it starts and idles. Still need to do some tweaking and adjsutments and the ecu to learn but all in all NO LEAKS and starts.

Yes sir. Let the fun begin! Since you are at this point, I thought I would ask. Do you find that: You go through the ecu setup screens.... adjusting the idle screw to get into the target area on the handheld, and finally save it all. Car is warmed up at this point as it has to reach temp before it will let you continue.... then you can star the car and shut it off easily! Then the next day, you try to start and it does not start up as easily as when its warm? I am not sure if you have had this problem, or if its part of the EFI's "Charm".
-
yeah I found that problem, restarting the next day after setting throttle adjustment. it eventually started ok and once warm fired right up again.. Something I will have to look into again as I haven't started it since then..

For your reading enjoyment and or pleasure :0)....... we are not alone LOL

without spending any more money on this, I choose to raise the plenum abit so took it to work and made a new box. Test fitted it today and I have lots of clearance now.

bit higher then I really wanted out of the hood but it will do

put the new plug wire ends on, going to fit perfect and lots of room to remove cap if I ever need to

Nice! Getting Closer!

thought I would update this instead of starting over.
I revamped the top plenum for the 3rd time, and its stays now.. I got my engine rebuilt over winter and got it back end of may. First car show was June so I did a mad panic to get it all together after a long winter thrash.
I have been driving the car constantly since June 2nd, about 4 times a week, and its running flawlessly every time. Car runs and drives awesome, no hesitation on the tunnel ram, instant pedal.. The Fast efi is learning all the time, and works perfect. I have close to 700 miles on the car now,, and have never once left stranded. I am very impressed and happy with the engine and efi.
