Re: '78 K20 to C10. Almost 20 years in the making.

Had a buddy weld a 18mm nut into the exhaust today. Wired up the o2 sensor. I cranked the engine over to fill the fuel sump with fuel before putting power to the electric pump. Ran through the setup on the Sniper controller. Cranked her over for a few and got her fired up. I realized my TPS wasn't reading correctly. I immediately figured out it was the pig tail I bought to breakout the TPS for the trans controller. SIGH. So Ill have to go about building another bracket for the dedicated trans TPS.

After running for a bit I realized the header flange is leaking. Im gonna try another gasket before doing anything drastic.

Initial impressions is the throttle response is significantly improved over the carb. Obviously I can't drive it so I can't tell much else. Ill see how the cold start is next time I fire her up.

The gauges are working correctly for the most part on the new cluster except for the oil pressure gauge. I used the provided gauge and installed it as I showed earlier and it reads nearly 80psi all the time. ?????
