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 great man!! and you will love the D1 my car is 3850 with a 4l80 and i have been as fast as a 10.51 in it. as light as your car is you might get that thing to run 8s if you play your cards right

no progress as of now. I was mocking up the trans to the motor and during the process of bolting the trans to the motor i broke the bellhousing. So now im gonna put a JW bellhousing on the trans. But being the holidays i have no "play" money so its put on hold till next month.

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!

wow that car is awesome!!! very nice work hopefully ill get to see it run if you go to great lakes. did you fab up the belt tensioner mount for the alternator? also hoe much psi are you shooting for? what size pulley are you running on the head unit? this is really close to my build but mine is a d1sc 6.0l in a fox body.

the pully setup is 7.65/4.00, was told its about a 10psi combo. Yea i did fab up the tensioner myself. Since im not running PS or water pump i didnt want any extra stuff on my acc. belt. Heres the link to how i did it....
