new years eve engine install
Finally got the 3.5 back yesterday. What started out as a minor service at the beginning of Aug. turned into a complete rebuild due to an incompetent p/o. It was converted to a 3.5 twin plug by Andial in the early '80's along with the DP conversion. Jerry Woods did the rebuild. Since it's a CA car I needed to retain most of the smog stuff and still pass smog. I'm waiting for the dyno sheet, but here are some specs.
3.5 twin plug, Bosch 12 plug distributor, Mahle 7.1 P&C's, JW SC turbo grind cams, K27 turbo (already had), SSI heat exchangers, DP muffler & DP intercooler, Tial w/g. 385 flywheel h.p. @ .8-.9 boost. Also has sport clutch. Wevo did the trans rebuild and it had the Andial 8:39 r&p & lsd. Hopefully I will get it on the road tomorrow.

Very nice Harold, what a great way to start the New Year! Congrats. We'll be expecting lots of driving impressions, so let's get through the break in ASAP

Yes the w/g is right. The top fitting is vented inside the engine compartment. The boost line is behind it.
I have a boost **** & gauge. Does the **** & gauge go BETWEEN the line from the intercooler to the side of the w/g?
