Just had to get all the pitot/static lines and wing lighting wiring tucked into the wing root properly or they don't fit.

After the engine run still surged, I investigated the seating of the float bowls & gaskets. This one shows how the new gasket wasn't properly located, see arrow.

There was a bit more work with the Billet pump package, but it proved not to be the problem. Moving on, OK, not the fuel system. Try running the engine as a normally aspirated engine. Remove the connection between the turbo and airbox. Believe it or

Had to shorten the new intercooler hose to allow everything to move to port. Repositioned the aluminum baffle and the intercooler and all fits now.

Next test, connect high pressure port from airbox directly to the "T" into the carb float bowl pressure lines and try a run. Still didn't work. Same smooth up to 4200/4300 RPM, smooth drop to 3200 RPM, smooth acceleration up to 4300 RPM, drop

New MC-4A 04
The MC-4A's must fit within this length and that 3/4" should allow the fit.

Somewhere along the way, a couple spacers had been lost. Made up new ones. Also put anchor nuts on the radiator mounting flanges to make assembly easier, sorta, kinda. Seems like reassembling this aircraft is more difficult than the original building.

New MC-4A 11
Because the sides are narrower and closer to the ends of the MC-4A's the old outer spacers no longer fit and it would be impossible to further shorten them, they have been replaced with a couple washers.
