    It would be so easy to setup the dual pumps wit the stock ECU. Just use the stock Fuel pump solenoid that operated the resistor to activate/ deactivate the second pump.

    Maybe I can get lucky and find one...

    Greg, I have the prototype but I'm not so sure I want to get rid of it.

    Awesome build man!

    The red valve cover - who did it? I only ask because when I tried to buy a powder coated valve cover, as soon as I removed the PCV valve, I discovered the passages were full of blasting media.

    Is it safe to assume you removed the "15042" paint from the oil pump mating surface on the block?

    a local guy did the valve cover. i am afraid it may be full as well... its on the list. i dont have anything to back that up, its just something that i have been concerned about.

    the paint wasnt on the block there, ray is the one that did all the hot tanking and machining, and it was pretty much prepped and ready to go!

    I ended up using that wrinkle paint on mine out of paranoia... Very happy with the results.

    I should post up how I clean valve covers before powder coating. Its a relatively simple process that keeps everything out of where it doesn't belong.

    Here's to good old wrinkle paint.

    I've always loved wrinkle paints, even though they hold onto oil, grease and dirt.

    Really nice job, Adam.
