Kiggly high pressure beehive valve springs came in. We'll be using these going forward.

The block should be back in a few weeks!

Thanks again for deal Tom..

Got all the stuff for the 3" aluminum IC piping we will be fabbing up I also traded the Buschur race FMIC for a 4" garrett core which has 3" inlet/outlets.

Finally got the wheels test fitted on the car. The fitment is perfect with not having to use a front spacer you would normally need with Brembo's.

17x9 +35 RPF1's, 255/40/17 tires, no spacers (wilwood front brakes).

(sorry for the low quality iphone pictures)

Love me some RPF1s....I was going to get 17 x 9s also but they didn't have them in black, so I went with the 17 x 8.5s. At the time, wheels & tires were the last item to get my car rolling again & I didn't feel like spending more $$ & down time getting them powder coated, etc.

No major updates yet. I should have a great one in the next week or two. I should have something arriving from Evodan today

Some small things while waiting around for the block. Someone needed an intercooler switch so I gave them mine and made a carbon block off plate...



Also had some fake CF matte vinyl laying around, so I covered the area on the door bars of cage where the paint gets scratched from people going in and out.

Also today I washed the car. It hasn't been washed since last October when we were at the track...

It should be moving under its own power in 1-2 weeks.
