Installed the Boost-A-Pump this morning. Pretty straight forward install, only had to splice into 1 factory wire. Hopefully I did everything right, I'm not to well versed in electrical stuff!!!

Looks real nice under that there hood!!! What else do you have planned this spring?
I haven't installed the damn head cooling mod. I'm patiently waiting for it to come, though I haven't a clue on when or who it's coming from(UPS,USPS,FED-EX). It sucks, once I get that installed, I can put the damn Whipple on. I hope it comes tomorrow, because I have the next 2 days off. If not, I guess I'll try to pop out the freeze plug and clean up the garage a bit.

Installed the MGW shifter and changed the tranny fluid today. I also removed the freeze plug for the head cooling mod, that I still haven't received!! The freeze plug didn't cooperate fully, but I did manage to get it out.

I droped my car of the other day for some suspension work, subframes, cc plates, aluminum rack bushings and the steeda stop the hop package. I might also get a bassani catted x pipe.

How hard to get the freeze-out plug out with the Eaton on you think??

I wouldn't have been able to do it with the superchager on the motor. I hit the one side of the freeze plug with the dull side of a punch. It did spin like it was supposed to, but not enough for me to grab it with pliers. I had to score it with a dremel cutting wheel, then drill a hole in the plug with a very small bit(I stopped drilling before the bit went all of the way through, just a slight hint of daylight). I used a wood screw and turned it into the hole. Then used a claw hammer and out it came. Even with the blower off, the damn wiring harness is in the way! I guess if you get lucky and it spins enough to grab one side with pliers, you could leave it on, but if not, be prepared to remove the blower.
My cooling mod came in the mail today, finally! I should have it installed and the Whipple on by Friday afternoon!!!
