Aces Killshot Fusion EFI Swap

Found it!

Yeah, my hybrid distributor isn't very possible. Even the adaptor collar is shorter (and screwed on vs clipped on) with the TFI dizzy

Duraspark


So we will just continue on with our plan of locking up the Duraspark distributor for now. It is pretty cut and dry what needs to happen and easier to work on in the field.

I got the fuel filter installed on the frame and made the hose that goes between it and the fuel pump. I noticed I was shorted one fitting I really really need for the return hose to connect it to the pump... so that is kind of shut me down. It was almost midnight so I didn't really mind getting shut down anyway.

I think I will just switch to the return hose now, then I can button it up by getting the tank back in it and I can just run the second pressure line to the fuel filter on the frame after I get the new fitting in and get the TB installed.

Removed the Duraspark coil and mounted the fuel pressure regulator where the coil used to live.



Return line from the FPR to the tank is built, blown out and installed.

Today I intend to get the tank back in it and get it turned around. I am really looking forward to getting under the hood, I think that is going to be a lot of fun.

In regards to that, the bolt for the rear fuel tank strap had it out with me the first time I dropped the tank. I think it was a bolt going into an extruded clip nut, I ended up having to cut it out and just went back with a bolt and a nut. Well now with the driveshaft in it is a major PITA to get a wrench on the bolt in the crossmember. So after fighting it for 4-5 times dropping the tank since I decided to make the bolt one with the wrench... and welded a handle on it.



I also got the interior back together, cue "this little light of mine..."
