Oh I feel sick. I just got off the phone ordering the final parts. Spent another 500 on fuel feed & Return, Turbo feed/Return, and the misc hoses to finish up the build. Also got a trans cooler and some battery terminals for charging. I'm done with ordering and its time to get this baby done.

You could make a thin aluminum plate that mounts under the dash, if you need to remove it you just look underneath and turn (4) 1/4 turn fasteners.
You could make a bracket that welds to the dash bar out of 1/4" tubing and bend it so it looks like |_| " a squared U" and weld two tabs to each side with 1/4 turn springs on it.
From the seat you wouldn't see it, but you look under the dash and would see the brackets, so it would mount 90* to the floor.

I don't know. When I built my last motor I never thought it would be a pain in the *** to drive. Its soo loud and the car just draws too much attention. I sold the motor out of it and a handful of other things, I'm going to build another motor for it in about a month to get it back on the road. The car is a very clean 99 with 38k on the odometer, I'll probably end up selling it.

Things have changed in the last couple of weeks. The car is somewhat on the back burner for right now. We got some news last week about our pregnancy and I've got to handle business. I'm still going to *try* to work at my current pace but i know of 2-3 weeks where I am going to be @ Hopkins for testing. I'll get done just alittle longer than expected. Jessica and our baby's heath are my #1 priorities right now.

Thanks guys, I feel very confident with the staff @ John Hopkins. They took very good care of my father when he had surgery to remove cancer two years ago. I came in a train wreck thinking I was going to lose my father and they really stepped up. The next 30 days will give us some better info on whats going to happen. Thanks again guys.

Yesterday I left work early because we were dead due to the rain. I had a chance to mockup my water pump mount for the intercooler. Mounted it right below the fuel tank so its out of sight. I also got the ignition coils mounted on the outside of the front frame rails right infront of the cabin. Started sealing the seams on the passenger side sheetmetal work. The dash support bar is fully welded and back into the car with the BS3 mounts done.
