I looked at the diaphragm and it was aok. The valve shaft was kind of sooted up but I lubed it up and it is fine.

What did u lube it with and why?
Its not a blow off valve, this thing gets insanely hot. So unless u used some special lube that isn't affected by any temperature then that lube will just turn into an even bigger layer of soot

Where is your build thread?

I haven't updated it at m.net in a while. I redid the exhaust with v-bands, pulled the ******* dash out again to rewire some ****, and am installing the Dakota Digital speedo converter box because my speedo is whacked out. I'll be doing that tomorrow and the car will at least ride around the block.

I still need to order and install a new FM/V8R oil pan as my modded f-body pan is leaking at a weld. I'll updated the **** if I'm not too lazy to take new pics/vid.
