Thanks,These are my first set and i absolutly love them.Ill most likely be out there the weekend i get this heap moving under its own power.Tryed to fire it up 2 days ago with no luck and i know i have plenty of fuel so its trouble shoot time.

all you need to start a car is fuel, spark and compression. check em and get her started!

I know this! lol.
I know it had compression i was driving this motor N/A 3 months ago,I know it had plenty of fuel,I converted the stock harness to COPS (Waist Spark) with two cylinders sparking at once.Anywho its either that or somthing in the tune. And im not in a hurry to crack open the harness if thats the case.I will mess with it this weekend and hopefully its somthing thats a easy fix and i can get er running.

Ive seen some with 6 incers and still had a small cut out i did however find 6 inch that is a pin on and looks a little more spacious and the cowl starts sooner on the hood giving more room twards the front where i need it. Its $250 + Freight and i have been thinking about getting it but as of right now i don't have the cash and i have a few more things i want to do to the car before i get to that but a hood is deff a possibility in the future.

what all did you take apart to put the motor in? could it be out of time, you may have fuel and spark, but that doesnt mean that they are firing right. Check your Cam Postiton sensor and CKP to see it the are set to factory standards and make sure that all though you have spark in both cylinders, that they are not backwards, the hot spark could be firing on the exhaust stroke and not firing on the compression stroke (if that makes sense)

are there other blower setups that fit on that motor? being a stock setup and how bulky it is, i guess it just seems like it would be more beneficial in more ways than not, to go with something like a KB or another aftermarket blower.

why note try some k-member spacers similar to the ones that whipple sells for people to use their blowers on terminators? that and a regualr 6-inch hood might fit.

It makes sence yes, but not likely if you knew what the whireing diagram looked like to convert the NPI harness to COPs your would know what i mean.I would have to be a full blown retard to do that lol.Been doing this for a while so im not worried im sure its somthing stupid im overlooking.

There are more beneficial ways when you have beneficial kinda money.If you know what i mean.My car is nothing more then a budget build.
