Nice build wish i could do one of this big build some day. GL with the build

 

Looks like a fun project.

 

Scuffing it up and putting on a second coat tomorrow which will hopefully smooth it out. I think it looks better than the dull oem finish.

 

Believe it or not I got the motor, transmission and TC all back in the car at once. Only managed a minor scratch or two also. I have a lot of small things left to do but she is coming together.

 

Nice work thus far. Will be a beast when you finish!

 

Here are a few better pictures.

This is how it sits in the nice lighted garage that has made working on this thing a little more bearable.


I am starting a new wheel fad if anyone asks.


A little bit better shot of the freshly cleared bay.




Fluidampr and ARP hardware to ensure I do not loose another crank pulley and or lower timing gear.


I bolted everything together including the TC and got it all in at once without doing much damage in the way of scratched paint.




I also replaced the clutch line with an STM full line and their clutch stop. Also deleted the egr stuff with one of their block off plates.


Radio relocation and my first batch of gauges to replace the old stuff.

 

Nice BBY!
