Doing a little painting...
I decided on gloss black because
Took a few beers to get up the nerve to cut the car! LOL
That whole piece hanging down there... Wow.... Long story short. Adopted a barn cat. Cat saw the hole in the cowl... Jumped in and went all the way to the passenger side. About 3 hours later finally got it out without harming it. Ran away the next day. First and last car I'll ever own.
All done!
Ego Killer told me to cut more.. I should of. LOL
I will end up cutting it all the way over. I knew I could always cut more, I can't add back.
Blood, sweat, and tears.. Blood being the first. Grinder got it... Bandaged it up.. Grinder got it.... Said F IT! LOL
That crank gear.. Whew... Fought me!! Major pain to get off but finally got it by rigging up a 3 jaw. LOL

How about some motor pics?
Can't say enough about Thompson Motorsports (Nevada TX).
They are literally the role model of this business IMO. You can strive to be what they bring to the table. I could speak for days on their morals and quality but I think that summed it up decently.
You need a shortblock? Go talk to Kyle @ TMS, PERIOD! Tell him Lemons sent you, extra special care. 
370" 10:1
H beam and 2000 rod bolt upgrade
Diamond flat tops with reliefs
Stock crank
Billet double roller assembly
HP Melling
LJMS stage 3 turbo cam
317 heads
ls9 gaskets
ARP studs
Edelbrock Proflow intake with edelbrock rails and throttle body
FIC 127 injectors

Transmission:
Built 400 with pro brake trans brake
PTC billet 9.5 unit 4200
TCI plate
I have never in my life had a converter fight me so bad getting it slid on. To the point I thought something was wrong. I've had friends ask me to install their converter because it always goes so smoothly for me. This SUCKED!
Home made trans jack!

Runnig dual Deral Pushers (16925?). One single one cools on motor perfect, more than enough.
Added another though for the turbo combo.
Running the cheap 25241x? I think thats the PN Griffen radiator.
Fuel consists of:
E85
FIC 127s
Dual 450s intank
Aeroquip lines
-10 Feed/Deeds filter
Y block
-8 to each rail
-8 from rails to Holley 1:1 regulator
-8 return
There is going to be some things changed on the fuel.. I worked with what I had for now.

12 bolt
5/8 studs
lightweight strange 3 series
Will be around a 3.55 gear
All the suspension on the car is MWC. I replaced all the BMR it had on it. The customer support is far better with MWC.
The IC pictured isn't being used. I just got my A2W setup in the other day.

Remember, I got married! HAHA
I actually had 0 intentions to get the car running before the wedding but I wanted it to be badly.
The wife put the foot down and said she wanted it running.
It was there, barely! LOL
My father pulled 3 days with me... LONG days at the very end. A week before the wedding I had people telling me there was no way it would be done. HA A month for the wedding, this thing was a shell... And I'm not kidding. I'd post a pic and people would ask for parts because they thought I was parting it out. LOL
It came a LONG way in a SHORT period of time and we cut it extremely close.
The pics of me/father/wife were the NIGHT BEFORE the wedding. The car hadn't even been sat on the ground yet. Notice how dirty I am, notice that cake topper?
Anyway....
Cake a family friend made for the dinner.
O man... These brake lines... I will NEVER flare brake lines in my life ever again. Horrible!!!!!!
