Message I didn't get to make much progress since I have a test on Monday and a paper due Tuesday...but somehow I found a little time to get a few things done.

I have a bad injector on #2...so I decided to do the Dremel method for right now. I plan on pulling the plenum sometime this spring to replace with a PC'd one, bypass the water lines...all that fun stuff. Here are some pics...

The weapon of choice...

I finished up polishing these water pipes...and drilled, tapped and installed the sending unit for my Autometer water temp gauge. I really like the way this came out...but I could've spend a little more time on the polishing part. Oh well...I really don't care about bling anyway.

Ignore the excess RTV...

I used some shrink tube to clean up the look a little bit...

Finished...

Unfortuntely, I haven't replaced the injector yet. I'm going to get ahold of the new o-rings tomorrow and probably start on it Tuesday night. It sucks when I'm trying to study...my mind wanders and I go through the laundry list of things I need/want to get done on the car. I plan on pulling the timing belt covers off and giving them a fresh coat of high-temp paint...and just clean the engine bay up a little bit. Anyways...I'm just rambling because I'm tired.
