Got a few more things done today.. (Alternator, accessory belt, painted the valve cover yesterday wrinkle black & installed it today, routed the oil feed line). Waiting for a few goodies in the mail from TSCOMP, MAP, Toxic Fab, STM, ETC

 

pictures are very nice quality and glad to see its almost 100% back together.. the stm FF manifold looks awesome.

 

he was wondering why the engine was sitting there sideways..

 

Coming alone nicely what are you gonna do about suspension?

 

Thanks man. Going to leave the suspension as is. Stock struts launch amazing with the lowering springs I have.. i've cut many 1.4's with them.

 

ya stock suspension works pretty good.. not when you load the car up with boost off the line though.

that wrinkled black valve cover really sets off the STM manifold. very cool looking engine bay now.

 

Thanks sir, yeah I think it looks real good also.

The car is 100% done. I am going to hook up an oil pressure gauge I got before starting it to make sure that good. I'll get video up when I do start it Kind of having some health issues ATM so i'm not sure when ill get the motivation to go out there but hopefully in a few days..

 

what kind of paint did you use on the valve cover?

 

I used VHT wrinkle black spray paint from my local auto store. I hear the krylon wrinkle black works well also.

 

very nice build...are you going to stay stock ecu or go aem or something else?

 

Going to stick with the stock ECU. Tom makes magic or witchcraft or whatever you want to call it happen

 

Make it go vroom already.

 

Hell yeah thats awesome!!

 

Hope you feel better man, can't wait for startup

 

Awesome car.
