Another 5.0 build: #projectmerica

[ballski]

So, we tried firing it up last night and blew the coil up while we were trying to time it! I had a MSD blaster 8202. I'm thinking I needed an 8203 with the included balast resistor? Anyone?

Also got my Ford racing flywheel cover and put that on beforehand:

With the exhaust right there, eliminating the rubber bushing would probably be the best thing to do.

Talked to a buddy, There are two E46 is yards here in town. I'm going to see if I can snag these and put one together!

I'm gonna do the same thing. I'll just deal with the extra steering vibration

Look at this thread. It's something I'm going to explore for my build. It may help a lot with clearance on the drivers side.

I'll do some searching and see if I can find the build were the guy to 2 e90 shafts to clean it up.

I wish I was to the point on my project where you are, I could mess around with the headers. I've been welding for years, its what I did professionally before I took an office job. Have a tig and mig in my garage!! We'll see what I come up with. I kinda planned going turbo right off that bat to save me from re-fabricating my exhaust later down the road.

[ballski]

Yes I saw that. I really wish i could weld! Probably should get one and start practicing.

Love this exhaust and am def running a H or X pipe
