 Re: My 76' Work in ProgressI failed to mention earlier that Landshark was an integral part of the install crew. My humble apologies for my omission.

Re: My 76' Work in Progress I also found I made a grave error with the placement of the drivers side O2 sensor. It sits above the front drive shaft about 3/8" which means it would be taken out on the first bump. The remedy is to pull the header, cut out the O2 bung and patch it then re-drill and re-weld it back in. It appears it will cost me another day I don't have.

Re: My 76' Work in Progress use a pipe plug on the exhaust pipe, cut a new hole and don't pull the pipe... thats what they did on my exhaust.. not leaks so I would assume it would be ok?

Re: My 76' Work in Progress Was going to say the same thing as Landshark - saves time, money, headache, and back on track.

Re: My 76' Work in Progress Looking good! Especially the dude wearing the V8 hat.
I also looked at the serp set-up and thought something didnt look right compared to mine but since "It's just your truck" I let it go. Here's the common pic I use minus the AC. http://www.google.com/search?q=v8+explo ... B576%3B432 I'm so happy that this is your truck....and not mine! _________________ Definition of cool. |

Re: My 76' Work in Progress Looking great! You're making good progress.
Why do ya have to re-wire the OBD2 port? Did you need to cut it or de-pin it it to get it through the firewall? |

Re: My 76' Work in Progress Got the new engine fired up tonight. I need to work out some bugs. My JY fuel pump is barely putting out enough pressure to keep it at idle. When it does have enough fuel pressure it sounds great! I have to clean up the wiring and get the exhaust but it is getting there.
A special thanks to both EFI Guy and Viperwolf1 for their tech support! |

Re: My 76' Work in Progress WOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! My Bronco sense was tingling just about that time. But it was just gas. I've got another JY pump if you want to give it a go. I hope it's not a bad filter or the crap I put in the fuel lines.
