JLarson's build thread

Fuel pressure gauge is ordered. Should get some answers later this week.

This wasn't a build thread....

It was a thread novel lol. And a great one at that. Haven't came across a thread design like this.

Now you're just bragging. Ima go look around Harbor Freight to take the pain away.

Don't let anyone tell you size doesn't matter!

Couldnt you use the bleed ports to let the pressure out?

The rails don't have bleed ports. The issue is i can't reconnect the head unit to the rails with pressure in the lines. If I'd realized what was happening, the way to deal with it is to completely lower the rails to relieve pressure, while the head unit is attached. I didn't. Pressure stuck.

Some pic's I took.

Rusty, did that FI crash bar go straight on or need any modifications? First time I actually saw one on a BP kit and I've always wondered.

They bolt right up no problem.

The brackets on the intercooler wasn't where they are suppose to be. That gave us a bit of a problem. But it did bolt up after figuring it out.

Maybe I should have said if Treadstone welds their **** on correctly, it bolts right up.

Betty, thanks for the post! I'll check that out - I'd totally forgotten those.

That being said, it was pretty easy to bolt on, we just had to move some washers I was using as spacers for the intercooler.

My pressure tester arrived last night (thanks to Solidus for the rec). I probably won't get a chance to do any additional work until Friday evening, but glad to have it. Hopefully I can figure out quickly if this is a vacuum leak.
