            Well been slowly chipping away at it for at least 6 months now but 90% of the items were sold through facebook. I did have some for sale on here to but the thread is old and likely got buried.

              I got a Ford fuel rail from the junkyard today to use for mocking up a top feed fuel rail setup for the KL. EV14 injectors will be the plan but in a much smaller size than my GT500 injectors.

                Parked the car for the summer in a shaded area to protect it from the summer heat.

                Finishing up details on a Mitsubishi ECU solution with BP Performance Speciality, so no more hacks required for a reliable car and full oem ECU tuning capability with OBD2.

                New ECU/Engine harness, top feed injector conversion rail using my 330cc EV14 injectors.

                Re-Valved K Sport coilovers, my own front BBK with wilwood 4 piston calipers, rear Miata sport brakes, and a front strut bar that actually sits on the towers and clears a Millenia intake manifold.

                    What details are you after? I basically have to make a whole new rail.

                      I'll want to do the mod one day and don't want to have to engineer it from scratch if I don't have to. Mainly what parts can you source from other vehicles and what has to be fab'd.

                        The only thing coming from another car might be whatever injectors you choose to run, other than that it's all a custom piece. I plan to offer them as kits after I get it all sorted out.

                        It's not easy fitting a top feed in there due to lack of space.

                          I like the idea of a kit, I'd say put me down for one; but my V6 project is just talk at this point and I'm always broke and have many other projects ahead of that. But you know, someday. Keep up the good work

                            I will certainly keep everyone posted. Due to how it has to be designed to work, it will be kind of like an oem unit. Made from stainless steel and brazed together.

                                Bought some new wheels for it. Gold wheels will be going back on the wagon

                                JNC 007 in Bronze, 16x8.25 +25 offset. Tires will be Dunlop Direzza ZII star spec in 225/45-16.
