Re-did my fuel lines and set my fuel pressure. I downloaded HP Tuners and hopefully turned off and set what I needed to properly. Then I proceeded to start the engine, took a few seconds at first when I was cranking the first time. Scared the crap out of me since I had the garage door closed.
Now I have to block off the two vacuum leaks, one is the brake booster and there is another port on the side of the intake manifold behind the throttle body on the RH side. After I get that sorted, I need to do do the re-learn for the cam and crank sensors. The GM book says I need a scan tool to do that, do I need a special tool to do that? Or can I get it done with HP Tuners or a generic scan tool?
Now I need an air filter, another few elbows once I get the whole front end back on. Also need a belt, PS fluid, a different lower radiator hose and coolant. That SHOULD be close to the last of the items I need to buy. I also decided that I am going to put the stock brakes back on the car for now. I already bead blasted the calipers and painted them, I now have to take the rotors off the spindles so I can clean and paint everything and get it back on the car.
Stretch goal is to have the car back together and drivable for the September meet. With a little extra time put in after work I think that shouldn't be too hard in the time I have to work with before then.
