So what's with the clip-on timing cover? You expect to be in it that much?

Like the looks of the holes in it too, but...............? On a DD?

While you are cloning mo-mo's....................clone one with A1 mounts please!  Or do we know how to remount an A1 to look like an A2? (Right hand mount anyway, maybe front as well.) :twisted:

A guy can dream, no? :wink:

Damn fine job by-the-way! Way Cool!

Wow I think I can count at least 4 different cars that have donated parts to this "Franken motor"

Looks good Dave, glad to see your feeling better.

I hope this turbo spools well.

What are the 3 fittings attached to your spiffy manifold for? Something going to be injected through them :) .

i'm going to guess one is for the gauge, one is for the waste gate, and one is for the pump

It'll be awesome to another franken IDI alive again :) I was worried every modder was getting distracted by TDIs (not that they're bad!). The IDIs seem to have cool potential we haven't explored yet.

Dave: Keeping power steering or getting rid of it?

Sigh, so I work a long day, 7 am to 9:30 pm, stoked I have a couple hours to work on my car, get everything hooked up ready to start it, no fab yet but wanted to hear it idle. No fuel at injectors... solenoid is sticky, put another used one in that worked fine, tested it in and out of the pump, its all good. Still no fuel to the injectors. Filled the pump, filter and lines with fuel, nothin.

I think the vanes have seized up from sitting for so long or something. This is  Malones old Giles stage 4 pump from a couple years ago, only ran for a couple thousand km's, than stored with diesel fuel since than... Tomorrow night I'll steal my buddys hand pump from his outboard motor on his sailboat and get that on the inlet of the pump, dunno if its gonna help much. Damn really wanted it to fire tonight. :evil:

Anyone got any tips for freeing up sticky vanes?
