well i finally put the bonnet on the gem since the EFI has been installed .... i knew it was going to hit on the bonnet, how much it hit was the question.

so with that issue 'out in the open' i decided it was going to need some sort of scoop .... i'm not a big fan of hornet scoops and it would need to be off to one side if i used it so i figured probably a Torana A9X type scoop was probably the best option ....

it would need alot of trimming as its WAY TOOO long for the poor little gem bonnet so i did a little photo chop and this is what it looks like ....

i am thinking though i would prefer it a little lower ... so a VK SS scoop might be a good option....

I reckon I could do a better photoshop job nah it looks good but I reckon the smaller vk one would look better.

i'm sure i could too if i spent a bit more time on it

well on a totally different subject to the scoop, i have just put my dollars down for a set of Siemens deka injectors .... 80lbs ... should do what i need for a long time to come!!

and i just said to my brother tonight who wanted to come over and see the gem running on methanol that he'll have to wait for a while cause its back on petrol till i get the bigger injectors and that could be a while maybe not

once i get them then i'll just need to get about $100 together to get a heap of methanol for tuning!!

So you bought 6 garden hose fittings Should have enough fuel for the 202 now!

[delcowizzid]

hahahaha water restricitions so hes using the sprinklers for fuel instead

[Holden202T]

nothing exceeds like excess

[Holden202T]

well after alot of fucking around i have eventually got my garden sprinkers working ok on the gemini with petrol....

still some fine tuning to do of the idle but other than that its pretty close if not slightly rich!

going to do a bit more work on the idle then i plan to get some more methanol and see if i can't get it to rev better than 2600rpm!!

well the fuel pump in the torana died on friday so i have grabbed the one out of the gem to keep me going so now i have to wait till the replacement for the gem turns up!!
