I have a new tune to flash tomorrow. Big step for me. Leaning it out ~10% everywhere and changed a few minor things with the A/C pump, mainly turning it off at 4500rpm and 60% throttle rather than 5000rpm and 90% throttle.

I couldve sworn I had a 3.0" pulley somewhere, but for now its got a huge 3.2 while I tune. It ran a 2.8" okay, but occasional bouts of 5* of KR made me step back.

Installed the ZZP oversized radiator in my bonnie. So far appears to be working fine. Had to go to junk yard to get a coolant sensor from a Grand Prix with the wiring harness. Didn't throw any codes or anything else. Also put in a new A/C compressor. Thats what I did over the weekend!

Washed the Buick and changed the plugs in the Chicken. 7000 miles on Autolite 103's gapped at 45. This is one plug, but they all looked the same:

Nothing much. I built a PassKey 2 bypass module, still on the project breadboard until my L67 swap is ready to crank and start. I dismantled the greasy under hood harness pin-by-pin and at every plug from the donor car. Then, I started on the Transmission range selector switch mods. It was a busy day on the garage, but the car saw very little work itself.

Tried to get a 26 year old tie rod end off the Accord. It won the first round, but I'm not licked yet.

Warmed it up for awhile before going to work this morning, because it was just ridiculously cold. This has to end someday!

Today I fixed the wiring to the parking lights in my left tail lamp, there was a broken wire causing the left two bulbs to not light up at night, looking like I had a burned out tail light. I also managed to lock my keys in the trunk....that was fun. And I found out the vacuum lines connecting to the evap cannister are rotted out, so I need to replace the line right where they connect.
