Okay fuel pumps should be fixed. One of the connectors on the ground wore of one of the pumps was partially broken. The wire inside the sending unit was too long and putting stress on the connector. I shortened the wire and put a new connector on it. I ran the pumps for a good five minutes without popping a 40amp fuse so all should be good.


Also today at work was slow so I decided I would start to polish the comp cover of the new turbo. I just got the preliminary removing of the roughness of the casting. I picked up a bunch of sand paper so I can continue sometime soon here.

Thanks! I still have a lot of work to do on the comp cover. This is the first one I've attempted to polish so we'll see how it turns out lol

Did you space the pumps just so they are still not so close and working against eachother?

Yes I did put a spacer between the pumps as well while I had the sending unit out.

a Well it's been a pretty slow day at work so I've put some time in on the comp cover. I'm out of patience for today so I will continue more on it on another day. I will need to get my hands on a dremel or something similar to get into some of the hard areas that are hard to get to. This is the first time I've done something like this and it's cool to learn but in the future I'll probably just buy a polished comp cover if I want it polished lol

Assuming it's nice out next weekend I'll put some miles on her and start the engine break in.

As for what's left before it's ready for summer, the engine needs to be broken in, new fuel pumps(not sure what ones yet), swap the 6766 on, new intake pipe, and have my exhaust fitted to the 6766, and then a tune.
