You have to retain the smog pump? Crap.
 
Thanks guys, I hope it runs as good as it looks.
Unfortunately I have to pass a visual inspection so I have to keep the smog pump. Doesn't use any HP, but it does look like crap and take up space.
The transmission is a Keisler A41 (fully programmable 4l60e) with paddle shifters and engine braking. I had the 200-4r, but I never really liked the TV setup and the way the od/torque converter lock-up functioned.
I do not have any experience with the EZ EFI, but I went with it because they have a good name, it was less expensive than a MPFI system and it seemed to be easily programmable (and I may need to create a special program for the annual smog checks).
 
That looks awesome! I'd be happy with that sitting in my lounge room with a piece of glass on top of it, let alone in my car. Good job mate :thumbs:

Now that's a compliment, especially from the King of Bling!:thumbs:

All that stuff looks so out of place on your car! Send it all to me will look better on my 82 vette :yahoo::yahoo:

Looks good though ..... since you used a vette serpentine drive why not just use a nippondenso compressor instead?

I just couldn't find the brackets and I think the condenser is over-priced.
