"It'll be done in a weekend man I swear."

 

Haha. Okay so i ran into more snags and a lot more money than expected lol.
But I got the motor together last night. Maybe I'll get it dropped in tomorrow.

I got my dyno tuning appointment set for April 16th already.

But I'm trying to have it together this weekend. Mitsu finally sent me the right parts yesterday at 2pm. So you gotta give me a break haha. Damn Mitsubishi holding me up.

 

Car looks sick, awesome job

 

Finally got my parts from mitsu and made some progress.

Fancy new GSC S2 cams installed. Timing belt installed.








Clutch installed. Fly wheel installed. And everything else but the valve cover is buttoned up on the motor. Just waiting on my Kiggly HLA that comes Thursday.






Thermostat housing





AC and PS brackets

 

I'm making progress folks!

 

Yay! I'm hoping to start it up and check for leaks tomorrow evening! I'm getting excited!

For my Mini FuelLab fpr ordered from MAP and have the walbro400 on its way also!

Dyno appointment setup with Keith at Pure tuning for April 16th. I hope nothing goes wrong to delay that!

Also picked up some oil just to put 200 miles on and change for the brad penn.
and putting in new coolant this time. Everything is falling into place very nicely.

I also finally put my torque solutions trans mount on





Edit: oh yeah! And I got this too!

 

Badass man, congrats!

 

ONE OF THE BEST BUILD THREADS HANDS DOWN

 

Basically have everything done but a handful of small things.

Radiator, brakes, fluids, intake, piping, bumper, front cross member, exhaust, drive shaft. And that's about it. Should be running tonight. I'm kind of scared that's for sure. But I feel like I didn't miss anything or cut corners.



Thanks for the kind words folks.

 

dope

 

It's alive!

 

Good job chad.

 

Thanks man.
The lifters quieted up after a little bit but still noticeable as always. I wish I would've bought new ones haha. Maybe next go around

 

My new ones make noise. It is what it is.

 

Got my fuel lab regulator in from MAP. The hole for the gauge was messed up and I had to tap it >_<. But not bad for my first time cutting and assembling AN. It took some time though.




All that's left is oil change, wheels, alignment, and fuel pump before tuning
