Been getting a bunch of new parts in. Relocating my battery to the trunk with 2 gauge wire and kill switch. Useing gofers shopping list and diagram. So big thanks to him and turbosax2 for the help. I'm going to try to take a lot of pictures.
Also ordered everything for 6an fuel feed line, tank to filter. Going to drill out the hanger and bolt in the bulkhead 6an to barb fitting. Have a Jays alternator relocation kit and saturn 160 amp alternator on the way also.
New act started slipping too so I sent my sbc clutch back. I was having disengagement issues with it so he fixed it for me free of charge. Big thanks to twicks69. Also ended up buying a 98 gst for $200. Good parts car. Sure I can make some money off of it.

Got a day off so I finally got a Lil bit done. Chopped off my stock fuel line on the hanger here.

Drilled it out to fit the 6an to barb fitting I got from stm.

As you can see the gasket won't sit flush on the hanger so I had to grind some of the fuel pump bracket off.

Well I'm officially tired of wiring. Son of a b that battery relocation took a lot longer than I thought. Pretty much 2 solid days all by myself. Here's some pictures. :)

Gotta figure out what I'm going to do about this still. Seems to be spliced in there?

all I got left is starter ground and to connect the 4 gauge to the fuse box. New flywheel should be here in a few weeks. Then I can get her all put back together. I pray everything works LOL

I've been having hell getting my lower injector seals to hold so I bought new seals again and this time put the old o ring under the fuel rail as a "spacer" and some grommets on the other end. Hopefully this will fix the issue.

Got the clutch from @twicks69 broke in and it's holding great. Also been tuning with @MY1GDSM and the car is running better than it ever has. Logging 50 lb/min and pulling great. Gonna take it to a local track tomorrow to see what kind of times my no driving ass can get LOL also a big thanks to @gofer and @turbosax2 for the help with the battery relocation. Everything works and turned out great.

Got on the relief valve punch mod today. I moved it about 1.5mm. Hopefully it is good and does the trick. Well here are the pictures I took of it. You have to drill completely through this top section to the visible tube below it. That is where the relief valve is. There is some sort of metal in that section I'm not very sure what it exactly is for.

Really isn't much to it, pretty simple. I reinstalled the pump and it still starts and idles good. I am waiting on new tires now. All the tuning on the highway destroyed my qtps. They started showing the rope or whatever it is under the rubber. Have 2 new ones headed here and another street tire so I can drive without killing my slicks.
I'm excited too @MY1GDSM with how it's running now I need to work on the best mod "driver mod" LOL going to the biggest race in New Mexico on June 6th. Hopefully I won't run into any more problems.
