some more updates on The Mamba.... i put her down and taking her to the shop to work on her since theres a lift. Sometimes it sucks having to do everything on the floor, atleast this will make it easier! Also got a couple more things in the mail .

-Greddy magnetic drain plug
-Prosport digital Oil Pressure Gauge
-Oil Catchcan

MAKING PROGRESS! Putting the engine together, but ran into a problem with the balance shaft so I had to take it back to the machine shop :/. It's always something but hey at least its nothing major.






Also..... had some time on my hands and my old pair of headlights.
So I Cut the drivers side open and made the "headlight intake duct." Inside is flat black, and the outter lens is painted Nightshade black tint. It was def. a fun little project to do. I will take better pics tomorrow.
