just waiting 4 my radiator to turn up and will fire it up friday and make a bracket for the air flow meter to sit a bit lower down in front of the booster

ek61, your right about the vk efi computer not being programable. HOWEVER you are able to adjust the air flow meter to get it richer/leaner if needs be and i have found this allows you to pretty much adjust it to suit most worked motors.
i was about to ask how you got around the firewall with the manifold, but then i read the post about moving the engine forward .... i took the aggresive approach with my ek and hammered the firewall in just enough for it to clear. (yours looks like a much neater result)
heres a picture of mine in the EK Wagon, might give you some ideas for the air flow meter mounting ... 3inch exhaust pipe works a charm!
