Awesome progress! Who made that manual rack you've got? I want to change mine but I can't find one that lists speficically for the SVO and I'm worried mounting points will be incorrect.

Unisteer, I wouldn't think the mounting points would be different, maybe the the tie rod ends, but I don't know much about svo front suspension.

So I bit the bullet and paid to have this thing shipped across the country to finish what I started. not much luck so far though. It got here about 2 weeks ago, I triple checked my cam and used the ebar method to zero my 2277 so i know thats right, the only thing not in correct time is the ignition, its not far off but I haven't bothered with it much, I'v befriended a few fellow car people and I plan on getting one of them to help me set my ignition timing correct. The only other thing that might be hindering my is my fuel system, depending on the weather I'll be draining my tank again to check the condition of the fuel and put it some fresh 92 as well as checking various fuel system components. As for the PIMP I'm going to step away from that for a moment, because the car wasn't running before the pimp install it makes more sense to me to just swap back to the factory components, get it running correctly then swap back to the PIMP, that way I know the car is completely in running order in terms of hardware. After that there shouldn't be any other focus but software. Sadly my stock VAM and LA2 are back home, I had my mom find them and she will be shipping them tomorrow. I would have them right now if she didn't send me the wrong parts! But it is was it is so I'll up date this again when ever I swap back to factory management.

Emptied out the tank tonight, going to switch revert to factory maagement tomorrow and attempt to fire, if that is successful, once dialed in ill swap back to the Pimp for round 2.

Sadly, due to a lazy mail clerk ill have to wait until Tuesday to do anything else to the car, i swapped harness's and injectors now i just need to put in the la2, wire up the VAM, add some fresh fuel and attempt to fire.

Got all the factory stuff back in, sometimes i feel like "the universe" or some mystical being is trying to convince me to get rid of my Stang. Went to go fire up the Stang and the started died on me, ill have a replacement tomorrow so we will see how that goes.
