the fit is good, haven’t mounted it 100% but I got the MWC roof rails and I have my hardtop seals off the wrecked car.

Update 8/20

The motor is complete and should be going on LME's engine dyno today. Any guesses to what it will make?

Was just going to post here, there is no updates. Nothing from LME, at this rate I'd figure I'll see a insta video or post before they let me know how it went. Gets me down a little to see Vengeance getting all the love, I know I'm just a small shop and this is my first motor built by LME but I would have expected better communication. Not to say anything bad about LME, I know their work is top notch and that's why the motor is there and not anywhere else. Will see how today goes and I will post as soon as I hear something, also I'm going to say it makes 1025 HP @8500 and 720 TQ.
