Megasquirt 2 just came in and Built



My Megasquirt II just came in the other day and I thought I would get a spot ready in the basement to put it all together. The Megasquirt is a Engine Management System, I will be able to monitor everything on the engine through a computer, boost, O2 sensor, temp sensor, tach/crank position input and fuel injection if I ever change to that.
Since the weather this week has been into the -18 to -24 having something to inside has been nice.
It's been slow, this is the first time I've built any kind of board like this. With about 160 different components I think I'll take my time to make sure it done right.
I've put a couple hours into all ready but have come to a part where i need to test what I've done so far and the Stimulator Board I need to do that hasn't come yet.
All the parts are here that I need to build the Stimulator board, which I've done now and as you can see I have finished main board itself.
Ran a test and everything seems to work just fine.

More roof work




After looking at the roof I wasn't happy with a few parts of it, so it was back to work on it. After a few more nights and a weekend on it I think finally it looks good. To bad it's gotten to cold to hit it with a coat primer.
I was also able to get the front apron cleaned up from the black stuff they spray on the new body medal. Plus removed the paint from the front and rear.
