It will come out to be around 6-7K in the motor and controls.

Okay...looks like 6-7 weeks for the pistons, once I get them ordered. I've decided to go through with it though, no reason to stop doing things right at this point in the build.

Still working on new pistons, my piston guy went on vacation. Doesn't he know there's more important things to do? If anyone wants my old (new) pistons/rings/wrist pins I'll sell the whole set of four for $200. The wrist pins are the only things that aren't new, and they're in good shape anyway. http://www.fiero.nl/forum/Forum4/HTML/029201.html

I've been working recently on a more advanced aspect of this project, having to do with my goal of this being a very advanced and well instrumented engine, technologically. So, lately, I've been ironing out some details for a turbocharger tachometer. That way I will be able to monitor turbocharger speed, and hopefully optimize efficiency. The plan I'm working on for right now is to use an IR LED and IR sensor mounted in the compressor housing to sense whenever a reflective surface passes by. This will give me a very definite hz reading for any RPM. Sooooo...more details of that soon
