Nova stocker project.

I have a project much the same as yours Alan...looks like you have some excellent parts to begin with. I've had trouble in the past with a coil mounted close to the MSD box as you pictured...tried it yet?

Gonna be long coil wire.

[HandOverFist]

It isnt the length of the coil wire, rather the RF interference between the MSD box and the coil...caused a mis-fire.

That coil wire is way too long. The whole panel is mounted so you can conveniently work on it at the track while you stand on your head. Duh

Alan,

I like the fuel pump mounting plate but I was always told you need to mount those Holley style pumps lower than the tank . I may be wrong or the picture may be misleading you may have enough fall there.

Holley's instruction sheet says

Mounting and INSTALLATION:
The best location for mounting any electric fuel pump is the rear of the vehicle. The inlet and outlet of the pump must be mounted below the lowest point of the tank. This is necessary to allow for an adequate fuel supply. The pump is designed to push fuel and not designed to suck fuel out of the tank. It needs to be gravity-fed or if it’s pulling from the top of the tank, it needs to develop a siphon feed to the pump. The pump should be mounted on the chassis, in a vertical position with the pump motor on top

Also being in FRONT of the pick up the fuel may need to overcome the launch G's, remember it's gravity fed basically

Two allen screws and you can have the whole thing in your lap to work on while you sit in the passenger seat. Surprised you missed that feature......

Congratulations????? -Al

Rich, MSD didn't think there would be a problem, but 'ya never know. I'll keep it in mind...thanks! -Al

Joe Veronda had those SS louvers on his hood and he had a local decal guy make a set of decals that looked just like the louvers. Covered the holes nicely also.
