Been a busy year.. not enough time to fix and repair everything...
I have accomplished a couple things though, but mostly not 100% - EBL Efi system. fixed and upgraded to Microlevel system. and installed a honda ev6010.
quickly dumped the photos to my blog -
http://lqqkatjon.blogspot.com/
I still have some leaks on my air system. I have some sag overnight. I have not replaced the line from the tank to the solenoids. The microlevel is pretty sweet.
EV6010 was(hopefully past tense) leaking oil. Last night I installed an o-ring on the oil reservoir as that is what I believe was the problem. i hope to get some more testing out of the ev6010 this weekend as the temps are going to be getting warmer and will be putting a 150 mile trip on. Strange I found out that my Progressive Dynamics 9260 does not get along with the generator. Further testing shows it also pops GFI on shore power. So there is always something.
I had a pretty annoyingly stiff throttle with the EFI. I installed a new throttle cable last weekend, and changed the springs a little. So I also still need to do some VE learning with the EBL.
I also need to figure out what I am going to do with the Aux evaporator install for the Dash A/C. after fitting the vintage air one I bought at the dash, it really did not fit well, and interfeared with the engine hatch too much. So I have to come up with another plan. I think I am going to build a vent box, that I can move out of the way of the engine hatch.
Hope the photos help the lurkers. someday I hope I have time to organize them better and will push them to the photo site. The blog is about a 5 minute upload off my phone.

Jon,
I am also going to go with the microlevel also. I have the el 11 system with no tank and 2 pumps.
How did you plum your tank and pump. I am sorta thinking of going with a tank and hi cfm air pump.
Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.
Scott.

Scott-
my situation was unique as I have a 75 that had an old power level system, that someone had installed a el1. So I have a air tank, and my air compressor is in the front drivers corner behind the headlight. They had a plate(you can see it in the photos), that was mounted below the windshield washer pumps that had all the solenoids. So we just changed the solenoids around, and the air lines were already there.
Microlevel was really built for a replacement for the power level. for your el2 system, you have to figure out where to mount everything, and there are pros and cons to that, as to space, and locations. the microlevel controller I think has 6 wires for it I think, that have to go to the compressor/solenoids. 4 solenoid control wires, a compressor control wire, and power?
The nice thing, is you are basically dealing with 3 air lines. a feed from the pump, and then one air line for each air bag.
