ultra_runner Posted August 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 OK guys... I'm back at it.Today I got the radiator/condensor/IC assy back in place, plus the steering pump, headlights, clutch master/slave line, plugs, wires, and a few other things. For the life of me I cannot find my AC compressor. I know it's in my garage somewhere... but don't know where!!! Here is a mock-up of the Cold Air Intake and the sideways Optima Red Top. Tight fit, but it'll work (I hope)Now - I'm getting a 3" elbow at about 105 degrees to make the bend might be a difficult order. Might just stop by a muffler shop and have them bend me some 3" but it is going to have to be tight. Kragen flexpipe maybe??That's all for tonight. Tomorrow's another day!Scott C.

ultra_runner Posted August 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 IT is alive!!!It's in and it's running. Although we brought up the engine on the stock ECU and orange injectors, the thing sounds like a freakin' hybrid between a tank and a jet. These cams are pretty radical and even with TWO mufflers its loud.Its 2:30 am and I've slept only 3 hours in almost 4 days. Big shout out to Doug, CJ, Larry @ Carlsen Volvo and Joe (who helped me till 2 am getting it to run).Good night all. See you at Carlsen!Scott C.
