Lol I did say junk yard. I need to go thru my connections again just to double check everything.
This thing is going to make stupid boost. When the bypass closes on a idle surge I see a 16psi spike for an instant.
I already lost a belt.... apparently when I put the stress load of the belt tension on the system the ac compressor mount flexes enough to really throw the belt alignment off when I unload the tensioner it moves back into place.... what a terrible delete pulley design. I am going to go drink coffee I feel accomplished enough today. New spark plugs and a radiator and I can safely troubleshoot the ignition system.

Sweet. I have to be at work by 3pm. If you wanna hang out for a bit before then?
Be advised,..what was listed as coil pack firing order for my EDIS6 on DIY's web site was opposite of correct.IT'S ALIVE!!
The monstrosity has officially breathed life. On the first turn of the key. It sounds like I may have 2 dead cylinders so I'm going to need to check my coil wire routing and stuff....damn coil packs....
I may have a bad coil... would not surprise me they are out of a junk yard.
Edit,..not so much the F/O, but the coil pack tower alpha designation was backwards ( ABC was something like CAB)
I almost want to road trip it over to see this car. Edis8, roots blower and dual TBs? What's not to love
I did, looks more aggressive in person, still frankenstang-ish but menacing. Almost seductively scary. It really should be sticking out of the hood, but steve likes to be sneeky.
Well Mike thanks to JR help I was able to get the radiator in and secured. Then I set the idle to 1400 and let it run while I checked sensor inputs and he took a timing reading...
Tiiming is stuck at 10* this means I am not getting the saw signal to the edis module... I will need to take resistance readings to be sure I have the same wire on both ends of the harness....
Or the module is bad.
I was so thrilled when he asked me to hold the timming light, got a break from picking up old electrical tape and paper wads in his yard, I just wished he told me NOT to point the light at my face to see if it was working 
made for a ruff drive home!

Geez man you make it sound like I put you to work or sumthin
Based on my research the edis system (mostly quickly scanning a few words per paragraph) I am going to replace the coil packs and swap the module. Fug it
