Default Rx7 conversion running

I have got my car up and running, it has been running pretty well for a couple months. There is always more things to get done, but I am very happy with it so far. Here are some pics.

Thanks
I didn't want to bump the stock on and have hook smack me.

HotRod68Camaro: The neck I have on the intake is rubber, so I just drilled a hole smaller than the IAT and forced it in there. You can see it on the front side of that black elbow off the Throttle body.

It runs great! (so far anyway) I just have some things here and there I am troubleshooting. I have got to drive the rx7 more since I put the V8 in it than I did when it had the rotary.
