Default Top Swap Complete!

Ok time to update this thread. Top swap install had a few hickups/ vac leak, bad ICM harness, bad fuel pressure reg. but after getting that all fixed, it is great! I completed post install tests to check everything. compression test shows 180 psi on all but one cylinder. the other showed 190 psi, 5% diff. Also did a coolant psi check and the system held 17 psi for 45 min without any drop. Vacuum looks great at idle. I have seen a peak of 7.5 psi at 6000 rpm. I had a peak of 3* of Kr when I started tuning and now I am pretty much Kr free.

Ok here are some pictures and a short video of it running:
