Nothing wrong with a little multi-angle video...

Clevor - Windsor block, Cleveland heads.

All terrain T/A, I like it! Now you just need some 30" rims and that sweet Vtec! haha

Hey Merv, no matter how much you try twisting around what I say, I'll tell you one last time, I will not go to the movies with you! lol

The build is looking great, so similar to my lq4 forged 370 build. I cant wait to see the final results. looking clean so far though!

Looks good!
With all that work under the hood, any reason why you didn't tuck the drivers side body harness?

Yea i didn't see any way to tuck it without having to cut and splice wires or repinning and I didnt want to risk any electrical problems with it....

woop woop...lol

I did a test fit of the tranny last night the the tranny mount to the cross member is about 1/8 or so off... so I guess maybe the k member or motor mounts has thrown the alignment off a little..... Im gonna try to adjust the pedestals some and maybe oblong the trans member hole...

When I finalize my body harness install, I'll post up how I went about hiding the harness.
Btw: my fusebox only has 3 relays in it now

I'm under going an lt1 to lq4/ls6 swap at the moment to. I ended up having less in my entire lq4 swap with a tube front suspension /strange coilovers, than I would in the efi connections kit installed.
