Default Motor and tranny are in!!!!! Lots of Progress!!! PICS
Buttoned up the brake lines, plugs, wires and some other misc. stuff. Oh yeah, the motor and tranny are in! Couldn't have been done w/o Tony and of course Jeff at Maxwell. There's still a few things to finish but we may start it up sometime this week or next weekend.

1. Brake lines with SJM ABS delete kit


2. MSD Coil & Wires


3. Fikse's


4. Ready for a motor! Let's go....


5. K-member down, motor on.


6. Coming down


7. And she's in!


8. Finished product (almost)
