things are moving alone. Dropped off motor and turbos at MWC.


Purchased a nice engine diaper from Orme Brothers. But it's not quite the way I wanted it, so it's going back out to be redone.

Found someone selling a Brian Black engine harness that was modded for the quick discount at the firewall. So I picked that up.

Lifters are ready @ comp, just need to give them a call and get them back to me.

Getting closer!


None of the headers I have/had would work the way we wanted or needed, so Eric is custom making a set now.

Picked up a VFN dash and dropped that off today.

I'd like to bump this back up for updates and also ask OP a question.

How much do you realistically plan to street drive this car?

picked up the car sat. Work looks awesome:






















Need to figure out how to squeeze the rest of my acc.'s into the engine bay. Have a few ideas.

Not sure if this intake is going to work with these Allpro heads.






Will get more pics and get some of this small stuff knocked out soon.
