Well overdue for an update on here.. Youtube channel is always up to date but I don't want to just leave this hanging.

Car is up and running right now so let me do a catch up:


Battery got moved to the trunk to help clean up engine bay


After lots of drama the trans was installed along with the engine I had been freshening up on the engine stand..



I switched from my single taurus style fan setup to a cold case setup with dual fans.


Even go the factory radiator hold down to work


Got the Terminator X Max installed and working. Even got it to fire and idle great but still had issues.


Then TruckDoug came over and got me a tune working that allowed me to start driving the car!!


I definitely had lots of drama and hiccups along the way but it runs and drives now and now I can move on to the next phase of working out small issues... hopefully develop some reliability and trust. I have lots more planned so this is only the end of one phase and on to the next.
