I’m not sure what it is, it’s either the COVID-19 slow down with parts being almost exhausted and with lay offs or just so many people doing so many builds now. Myself almost 3 months for NX Express to do the direct injection and Katech the same time on my heads just about. Progress may be slow but good progress is better then a rushed job. Your build looks very nice, should be a killer.

Good to see

Engine is now in the car again. I'm shipping the injectors to them in the morning so they can start buttoning the top up.

GN_Drake · 06-24-2021, 10:41 PM

Current status. Just shipped out injectors this morning.

laynlo15 · 06-24-2021, 11:00 PM

Looking good.

GN_Drake · 06-27-2021, 05:37 PM

Injectors get there Monday. Could finish up this week or next. Going to look for flights now. Holiday going to mess up my schedule

Choda · 06-29-2021, 07:41 AM

Nice. I would wrap that AC line with some type of heat retardant.

GN_Drake · 06-30-2021, 07:34 PM

Noted Choda. I'll have to ask if they did.

Got a first-start video today, so it's alive.

GN_Drake · 07-06-2021, 08:55 PM

Breaking up a little under load. Working on figuring out exactly why. Hoping it's not the brand new injectors. TBD and it'll be getting tuned

Could be a number of items on that checklist unfortunately... how much boost are you running? What plugs/gap are you running?

Can't speak to any diagnosis, GPI working through and just gave me an update. I trust they will isolate it. Sounds like several issues were fixed from previous shop, and hope to hear more early next week.
