What did you do to your Gen7 today?

[CrackerTeg]

I gave it a good wash. Didn't bother drying since it's going to rain.

Checked valve to piston clearance with my new cam set up.

Changed front brakes. Anyone with legend calipers have issues with EBC pads? They were correct part but wouldn't fit in the bracket. Tried a different brand fit perfect

From what I remember, when I installed my EBC pads with the Legend calipers, I put them in without the shims because they wouldn't fit right.

Still waiting to get the car back from the body shop... withdrawals.

Worked on my cylinder heads today. resprayed my valve cover wrinkle black again.

Dropped my head and intake runners to be ported and polished today. Also spent some time installing my oil squirters, wind age tray and oil pump. Turns out that the oil pan I had modified to clear my sub frame is not clearing my new ported oil pump. The pump is a slightly different casting from what I used for mock up. I'm going to try and dimple the pan slightly with a press for that extra 1/8"-3/16" clearance I need.

Any eta on when your car will be done Tim?

[timot_one]

No real ETA right now. I'd like to have it done by July, but it all depends on how long it takes to have parts fabricated and how much money I have to spend on parts. Once the plenum is done, the majority of the work will be done. At that point it will just be mostly upgrading the fuel system and intercooler system. I should have some new mounts for my second heat exchanger finished up by tomorrow.

Ohh yeah. I dimpled my oil pan and got everything to fit. I now have about 1/8" of clearance between the oil pump and pan where it was hitting before.

[thisaznboi88]

Got ya.

Working on my head and it seems to have clearance issue with the cam sprocket and the 2 bolts that hold the cam sensor in place. Going to see if I a accidently put the sprocket on the wrong head or I need to push the camshaft up 1/8in. Never heads to double check my work

Front bank camshaft has no problems.

Here are pictures of the rear

Ordered a sample material for my headliner

[timot_one]

Spent some time on making mounts for my 2nd heat exchanger. I also picked up a few more fittings for my water to air set up.

[B.R.03EX]

Ordered a sample material for my headliner

Make a DIY when you do it! I've always wanted to replace my headliner.

[Nit3h4wk C0uP3]

I will sir! It'll be one of those learn as you go things Lol.

Dropped it off to get a new ac compressor installed.

[timot_one]

Finished up the mounts for my second heat exchanger.

Finished building my flashpro tl harness using a modified boomslang at harness

Changed my ATF and replaced the 11 years old stock filter with a magnefine filter. There an improvement in shift smoothness under normal driving and a bit less time to shift during and acceleration. But this might be all in my head, anyway the other one was quite dirty when I opened it so I guess it didn't hurt to change it for sure!
