Do you have E approved led headlights?

If the digital cluster has a SD card slot you need to access, grab yourself a SD Card Extender. Quite cheap.

Removed the tail lights so I can re-seal them.

I used a halogen work lamp to heat the area - really made it easy to pull the lenses in a cold garage.

Front glass sits on the sd slot so I need to either cut a hole or get a extender that can be bent in the place where it comes out of the slot.

Let's see here..
I have a huge V8 fuel distributor and air meter going on, adapted and mounted done, and getting the lines trained around the way I want/need them a bit for 8 lines to 4 injectors, and a crap ton of wires for standalone engine management..

I want to keep the stock airbox so have to figure out how to adapt that, a few more sensors, too much wiring, this might be around the halfway point of completing this stage of modification but all of the engineering imagination part has been worked out and concept proven possible, it fits, will work, going to happen..

Possibly a bit more difficult than I first expected though to be honest, as usual..
"I can make that part easy!", hours of work later, "easier said than done".

New HG, ARPs, cast exhaust manni welded and installed done, it's on it's way back together..

Massive fueling capacity..

Think she'll scoot a bit? 1.5 bars this time maybe?
Flex fuel sensor and a bigger yet compressor maybe 2 bars some day with some Eth and Meth??
Really I can hardly wait to run it again on the .6 bar WG spring.. I'm not even going to install boost control until I get her tuned in..

I sure didn't do this all today but it's where I'm at today..

No photos 'cause my phone died last week (leave it to Sony to create a "waterproof" phone that can't even handle a splashing), but I got my GTS headlight buckets installed. Just need to take a bunch of measurements, a deep breath, and cut a hole in the back to fit the Hella projectors.

This weekend is looking to be warm (for a Michigan February, at least) and sunny, so hopefully I'll be able to knock that out on Saturday, and get some of the other projects moving along too.

I'll be heading down to Atlanta in April for a work trip and I'd love to be able to take the 944 on some of those Appalachian roads on the way, but we'll see if I can finish all the work in time!

Resealed tail-lights. I used the halogen lamp again once they were in place and slowly tightened them down in a circular pattern .

Spent all day cleaning parts that are going back into my 951.



The trans is getting there. A little more degreaser and she'll be mint.

Finally getting around to recovering my sports seats. Need to repair the foam on one, then I'll go with the Only944 kit.

I'm not sure. My instinct is to buy foam of similar density, then research the best glue to use. I'd cut out the crappy foam and graft in the new. But I'm going to be looking into it. I have another driver side sport seat in my garage that has intact foam but is overall more worn out and probably has mold inside it. So we'll see.

Pressure tested my two sets of headers. All four pieces leaked, especially the 2-3 ones.




Now looking to buy new aftermarket.

There was a video posted by someone here that was re-upholstering his seats, and he did a bunch of foam work.
IIRC, he cut out square chunks of "bad" foam, and glued in new sections, them cut and sanded them to shape.
He made it look easy..........................
