Got a few things done tonight.....Worked on getting the wiring ran from the driverside the across the front and retaped the harness on that side to make it look better.


Moved a car off the lift and got mine on there....a few pictures from underneath the car to show how clean I got it it turned out great IMO!!! Working on removing the K-member tomorrow and start transferring the parts to my new BMR turbo k-member.





I KNOW STOCK 10 BOLT DON'T LAUGHT A NEW REAREND IS COMING WHEN THE MONEY DOES
Should have another update tomorrow and picking the motor up from Joes Wednesday.

Thank you... It sure has came in handy the last couple builds. Now i just need another so cars like Rob's can hang while I still work on others without having to move a car back and forth all the time.

Well Nate and I made alot of progress over the last 48 hrs..... Got to button up a few things and we are waiting on my fuel system which should be here monday or tuesday from Lonnies. Then the car will be off to Bill for the charge pipes. Here are some pictures.....Enjoy

Pulled the old K-member--


Picked up my motor and got my Mcleod RXT and billet flywheel installed--



Got the motor on the new BMR K-member and transmission bolted up--




Then we lowered the car onto the K-member--



Installed my Synister powersteering pulley and alternator I have powdercoated and rebuilt--



Installed new QA1's and got front suspension back together--


Nate got the wire mod and also the hood release mod finished up--



Got the intercooler and headlight installed--



Should have it back on the ground this week and hopefully the fuel system installed.

Thanks everyone! It's coming along well at this point hopefully some more parts will start rolling in today or tomorrow and we can really start finishing it up. I gotta keep it rolling so I can get started on a few other cars.

Here are a few pictures I took with my cell phone from the weekend also.







We have been working hard at it a lot but we did find a few free minutes to goof off. With the car being built to such a high class I find it only fair to share how high class the owner is He's even sporting his LSX Tee shirt and Drinking busch light !
