Nice build-up.  Will it start?  Will it not?  Low battery.

Very nice!  I see you removed the EGR, also.  That's an interesting location for the coil pack.  I guess since the ignition coil works OK next to the exhaust, that's a good location.  Visually, it looks good there, so why isn't this more common?

The club sells a digital EGR kit, so when you upgrade your ECM, and add the coil packs, you can still have an EGR.

He got one, already.

1.    The ones that learn by reading.
2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

I haven't got one yet. I'll add the egr back after the tune is done, then tune for egr.

Is this on the road, yet?  I'm curious about the heat aspect.

Yeah. I ran it at run for the hills, back and forth for a tdy assignment in Memphis, tn in 100+ degree heat 5 trips. Seems to be holding up well. Notice that I've kept the heat shield installed. I think that's key to heat.  The only real heat that it sees is the heat from the head and that is mitigated by the coolant that runs through it @ 200°F. Engine runs smooth and strong past redline. Have to be careful!

Um, past redline?  No governor?  How fast were you going?  The 2.8 and 3.4 have the same redline, right?  Does the tach read correctly?  I drove a 3.4/4T60 that had some sort of issue that caused the tach to be off.

By comparison, where did the coil pack sit on the 3.4, from the factory?
