huckleberry: def; Small, fruit-bearing, branching shrub of the genus Gaylussacia, in the heath family, resembling in habit the English bilberry, to which it is closely related. It bears fleshy fruit with 10 nutlike seeds, differing in this respect from the blueberry.

You're the best David Penton!
It's been a long night-I got the fuel system done, diff's in, Map Ecu2 is wired and mounted and I took all the skin off my knee (I bled=it'll work)! I would have taken pictures of everything but the lighting was horrible under the car so that'll have to wait until the AM. Unlike the last 240 you, Kev and I built I did more work than talking so it's progressing quickly. I still need to mount the FPR but I'm going to wait until the side intake is on. I ran into an issue with mounting the Quick Disconnect so I'm going to need to shorten the braid in the back but my saw blade is missing a chunk. I don't want to die yet and I don't have the cutter so that'll get done tomorrow too.
Lot's of movie quotes getting tossed out here on the thread tonight! Tombstone and Field of dreams all on one page. And if I build it- he won't be running me! We're not in the same class!!

You would be correct. Complete titanium design that cuts out ~25lbs and has about a 40% increase in flow. Most of the gains wont be realized until we S/C it though.

Coppers while I'm mapping- I'd rather destroy the plug rather than my pistons if I have detonation issues so that means no iridiums. Then I'm running Denso IK27's and seeing how I like them. As for the gap- it'll be whatever they come out of the box as or I'll be buying new ones. Any input??

No sexist claim intended here, but it is awesome seeing you building your own car. And you weld too!!
