    Garage workshop setup

    I like the setup your going with looks nice. Im not sure its for me though. To much wood in a mechanics area lol. EDIT: Of course I do everything ina driveway. with Irish drinking songs blasting to bug the neighbors.

    A post a day......

    Not a bad idea I hid all of my wiring. Im going to plastic wrap the injector harness and top of the angine then everything is getting a spray of ceramic enamal gloss black. Im pulling the extra brackets and trimming them down for where I removed the smog pump and a/c as well.

    Spark plug wire looms?

    No it was me, thats why I'm going to order those looms I cant see my wires getting burned with those. My problem is I know how I want things to look but I'm not the best at causing them to look that way. I never could get the zip ties to look good. And the cheapo clips looked good for a little...

    Disappointed, light rant...

    I had a similar problem. finaly gave up on fixing it myself took it to a buddies shop. he found a bad connection on my fuel pump harness. Sometimes you just have to have someone else look it over.

    cant decide which throttlebody to go with

    While Im asking about throttle bodies. should I go with a larger than stock mm TB? I'm not sure with what I'm running that I need to. I'm only running gt40 heads, TFS I guess stage one cam, gt40 intake and a cold air.

    cant decide which throttlebody to go with

    I might go ahead and buy a brand new throttle cable. should I get any particular throttle body i should look for to avoid the issues you had. and should I get a spacer or will the EGR spacer do the trick to clear the full rails?

    Simple compressor questions

    I'm sure you will put it to work soon enough. I used to use air rachets and all that, now I just use my impact when needed. My compressor is mostly for the body working tools Im using to slowly rebuild my 1960 stepper.
