Drove it home from his shop so got about 20 miles on the new engine now. Need to hook up some vac lines and get it tuned up and little odd and end stuff. I'll try to get pictures of the manifold and exhaust completed soon. Got some weird looks on the way home when someone would pull up to my right side. See how the law enforcement likes it.

Have you driven it with no power steering yet? The limited miles I have on my setup with no power steering feels like ****, I have had hondas in the past that had power steering deleted and it was never this bad but I think the weight 2700lbs, AWD, TRE max lock rear diff and PS delete make it much harder than any honda.
