Intercooler piping showed up, threw a few ideas around and came up with this:




I might have a buddy of mine weld up most of the piping as i hate couplers!

Im hoping to have her out and driving in about in 2 weeks, this weekend im going to get the trans cooler/lines all done as well as some other small things....

Couple of lifters failed on him!

Once all of his parts get here I'll be switching the cam/lifters/oil pump/water pump/timing chain etc!

Tranny cooler lines
Get belt
Order fans
Order trans dipstick

Tuner is coming over on sat. to get the car to idle and lean it out since its running PIG rich!

I also put a 7lb spring in the gate, gonna see what she puts down on that boost then turn it up once I get used to the car.....
