This is an E30, which has a smaller engine bay than the E36. Because of that, we had to remove the vacuum booster, and design a remote HydroBoost for the brakes. The master cylinder (from a '97 Mustang GT) is just behind the LH headlights - visible in our sig pic

Great work Garrett and Steve, this car is awesome. I'm looking forward to the engine/trans mounts you're putting together to make it an even easier swap for everyone.

How are the mounts coming along? I know you changed the design, just looking to see how far along you guys are with the prototypes. Thanks again for putting these together for us.
