Got the pump drive mounted and I ran a fuseable link and a relay to run it and the electric fan too.

A million little steps....

Too busy working on other stuff, lol. Had to fab up a lever and arm for a stainless steel milking valve.

Progress...once again, 1 step ahead and 2 back...

Got the batt all installed...and then looked at the blue 86lx in the driveway....the battery is supposed to be negative first as the front post is quite close to the hood..swap everything around...

Then I found a smaller black cap to replace the big grey ugly one. (from a 75 international 304)
Not a "performance" thing, but it will "look older" lol!!

Tried bolting the hood scoop on and found I was missing some nuts and a stud. So instead of buying one, I made one on the milling machine.
Two different sized threads was fun.

Only took half an hour and it saved $.025!! LOL!!

You're better off with the large diameter cap, spark goes where it's intended

I'm running msd but really, I don't think spark scatter will be a problem. Worst case, I'll change it back. It was just a "looks" thing, won't stay if there is an issue but how much spark do you need for 200hp? LOL!!

Are you afraid the alternator might overheat? ;-)
