Oh, yeah -

I'm scheduled at T and T in Gurnee, Illinois for the 17th of April.

Or were you asking when I was going to let this one pass? 

Do they have the same 5" digital cfm sensor?    Did not see that one on their webpage.

Yup.  Go to "Facility" tab, and you'll see it.

I was just trying to figure out how we'll hang it from the Weber.

Now blue, as opposed to aluminum?

Midget,

Since I just got back from an impromptu visit to T & T, I can answer my own question:  Yes, now blue & 5" dia.   AND, your duct will fit OK.

On the flip side, their throttle arrangement is by pull CABLE, so a cable casing mounting point will need to be fabbed up.    Working on it.

[Milwaukee Midget]

Thanks for the recon - and for sussing out the cable.

Seems no two dyno installs are alike - even the ones that are.

BTW:

Nice work @ Spoof-fest.       The array of talent was impressive, especially the bass players. . . . .

K & I appreciated the invite and it was nice to catch up with you & Mrs. Midget.

It's good to have a life away from cars, racing & Cecil Kimber. . . . . . . . . . . . . .     Oh, wait. . . . . . . . . Isn't ole CK your next project?

Additional T & T notes. . . . .

You MAY need to lengthen your B+/B- power source wiring for your ECU.   Their battery is about 3' to the rear of the engine mounting frame.   ECU could be put on a rolling shop cart, rather than mounted on anything.

Make sure Alfred has your Bat-tool belt fully supplied, for any eventuality. . . . . . . .

They seem to have a fair pile of bits & gizmos that may help out with this "mating". . . . . . . .

Midget,

1275 mockup engine has an oil pan plug with .511" major diameter x 20 tpi.    Some orphan British Standard thread (!*?*!?), no doubt.  edit: (or 13mm x 1.25 pitch ?*!?*)

Need you to confirm your oil pan plug is a match.    I have an extra that can be drilled & tapped for 1/8 npt Superflow oil temp sensor, IF, it will fit your oil pan.

T & T does not have a magnetic oil temp sensor.

Happy pre-Birthday!!                 BTW, 53 is a prime number, something to consider for your celebration.          

Use your knowledge wisely. . . . . . . . . .    
 
F/B

WE NOW BRING YOU. . . . .    HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!      just in time for the real birthday. . . . . . .

Happy Birthday to a nice guy who knows his way around an axe!!!!!     

Here's to being a year older, crankier, more arthritic, drinkier, less tolerant, YET, still able to draw breath. . . . . . .        make your dash a good one. . . . . . . .   

Enjoy the ride!!!!!!               (Although as you age, you might consider trading up the "midget" & the "B" for a "more comfy" "Geezer-mobile", say, a BUICK!!!!!)
 
F/B & Mrs. F/B

P.S.   DON'T use ANY of MY oxygen. . . . . . . . . . .

I get that a lot from people from Illinois - usually, it's during a Packer-Bears game, and they say -

HEY - CHEESEHEAD!  STOP BREATHNG MY AIR!

Happy Birthday again Chris.

Try driving a Buick Lacrosse CXS-- not a car for blue-haired little old ladies or anything like Broderick Crawford's wallowing '55 in Highway Patrol.
