Motor is about to go in after a trip to the 24hr AutoZone for some grade 8 bolts...
<img src="http://www.thebeasst.com/Motor_up.jpg" alt=" - " />

..and...we are trying a new mod... FWD!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
<img src="http://www.thebeasst.com/FWD.jpg" alt=" - " />

Motor should be in shortly. The plan is to have it and the tranny in tonight (or this morning <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> ). We will finish up the wiring tomorrow.

More pics tomorrow.

Their car was delayed, held up at the chassis shop and they just got it back. Looks like you guys are having fun, I'll be doing the same stuff to my car first thing in the morning - installing the fresh motor. Oh boy!

Glad I only drank about 10 drinks tonight instead of the usual 20 <img border="0" alt="[chug]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_chug.gif" />

wow guys, keep on chugging, you're doing great. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> Reminds me of the project cars that ALWAYS went together with >30 days before the HOT ROD power tour and they always got finished, somehow!

good deal Dave ... looking forward to seeing the new Beast along with Sean and Steve.

Lot of last minute work so good luck and be sure to have it exorcised and blessed before making the trip, wanna see it run on the track and not on the trailer.

We got the motor, tranny and intake in/on last night (err...early this morning). When everyone started becoming incoherent from exhaustion we decided to call it a night.

Mr. Freese is about to start hooking up all the sensors...we should have life in a couple of hours <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

Next pics will be in a new post hopefully early this afternoon. Maybe a video as well <img border="0" alt="[devil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />
