got some more work done. Got all the procharger stuff completly done, got the water pump on and got the tesnioner mounted up, fuel line crossover on and got my flex plate ordered. Motor should be going in REAL SOON!! Took out the race seat and threw in my stockers. I just wasnt feelin the race seat and love my stockers, it IS a "street car" that im gonna take on some long cruises so this is a better fit!

Looking good!

Are You going to have that thing ready for the race season? Maybe we'll have to meet up and run em this year if so. Mine should be coming home in a week or so.

Keep up the good work

got the motor in and everything on it. It was so nice mocking it all up on the engine stand caise it only took me about a half hour to bolt it all on! Next is to get my trans fixed and get that in the car so it puts the motor where it needs to be. Then i can run all my piping and radaitor in. Its a shame that a radaitor is gonna block the head unit from being seen through the front!
