I know man. I'm going to start working on it a little after work each day. It'll get done for sure, just won't be a quick process. I'm almost considering not painting the engine bay or pulling the hvac. As much as I hate to even think about it, it would shave a lot of time off the project... dunno

I say just slap it back together, don't worry about the light weight suspension or brakes either, they take too much time... just run street tires too, because it takes to long to swap them out..

I'm jumping back on the project this week. Haven't really got much done yet but I hope to have all the paint work done by the end of the weekend.

I just put some color on the intake last night, it still needs to be cleared and buffed but so far it's looking much better than I expected.

Well I finally got a good bit of work done tonight. Replaced the old Tex clutch with a new Monster and pretty much put the rest of the motor back together. All that's left really is to paint the engine bay and get the brakes put on, and get the motor back in.

Here are a few pics of the progress and the new intake I'll be using for the street, can't make the track version till I get the motor in and the bumper back on...

I changed my mind on the hvac again, not planning on removing it at this point.
