I have turned up the IP and advanced timing.

I installed a stiffer spring in the lift pump and I am running @ 30 PSI.


Made an in-line thermostat housing that uses Small Block Chevy thermostats so I can run a 160 degree thermostat as well as pick one up at any drug store.

I had a M90 blower on it for about 1000 miles,(running 6 lbs), but it was so obnoxishley noisy I removed it and made an resonant chamber intake with a long air intake snorkel to the Air Filter, (improved torque).

Cherry bombs in place of mufflers, 300D aluminum fan and fan clutch.

I have a 2056 (liberty) turbo and air to water IC to put on it.

I want to advance the cam some.

Custom Prechambers are also on the list.

I am making adaptors that will allow me to use standard 300D pence glow plugs in place of the loop plugs.
