BTW cage was pulled out to get coated the same color as car.

Have the FMIC halfway mounted, need to make some brackets for the bottom part and made some mesh type grill for the center of the bumper. Will also be welding some 3" vband connections on each side of the intercooler.

Being this will be a daily driver and I hate road noise we threw this in.

I would say about one more month. The heads just got finished up and we will start on the hot side this week to fit on the dummy engine. Shortblock is about 1week out.
Thanks for the compliments guys.

So the dummy engine is here, I will run it until the 402 is ready. Now we can start putting things together... This motor is a 5.7, 10:3 compression, cnc heads, and a cam.
