Another small upgrade just for the piece of mind that my Aeromotive regulator was not a restriction. This flows 6gpm and will do 120psi base

What a day . Started pulling the fuel pressure regulator to put the Weldon in . Realized I forgot to order ORB fittings . Ordered them . Pulled fender liners- being was re doing part of my return line Replaced with much nicer ones i got from a buddy . Messed with some alignment stuff . Cleaned up the undercarriage a bit because these damn ball joints keep leaking grease everywhere . Cleaned the barrels of my wheels


Found out my shift lever seal is leaking again . It wasn’t a week ago . That got ordered too .

finally removed the pcv pipe from my throttle body . Tapped and plugged. Polished the tb up . Ordered ablack plug as well .

I wish I could polish my throttle body....

Wait,...

Scratch that...

My TB is black.

Black is the new shiny.

So I had the shifter selector seal leak after I first put the trans in . The seal had dried up cuz this trans was new sitting for a bit and had a tear . I put a new one in and it didn’t go in the best . I don’t know why I didn’t think to use the shift lever to press it in even . I used a socket but with the angle and the floor in the way it was sort of crooked . So it sealed and I said hey I’ll leave it , it isn’t broken . Well it finally leaked again . Except this is my fault totally .

new seal will be here this afternoon
Fluid looks great too .

So another summit box showed up ! Which allowed me to get the passenger side all buttoned up . New piece of return line made . The fender liner trimmed the right way to actually tuck up in the fender.
Re filled the trans .

Put the black plug in the tb .

Saturday summit says the correct orb fittings will arrive for the regulator . Still waiting on the mounting bracket .
