So Sunday I went over to ZenRXSeven's house to check on the progress of his (formerly mine) TII and to just hang out. I took some pics (which I will post when I get home aafter classes) of his sweet new Pineapple motor (it's a large streetport with oil and coolant mods) all installed with the powdercoated manifolds, polished and painted turbo, Fluidyne rad, etc. We wired up the Taurus 3.8 2-speed e-fan, and after one false start (my bad), the fan fired up without a problem. It flows insane amounts of air (something on the order of 3000cfm)!!! I completely forgot to take pics of his suspension while I was there, but the whole setup is super slick...KYB AGX shocks, Eibach springs, all new solid urethane bushings, new (thicker) stabilizer bars...oh so sweet...It's so stiff that even on the softest setting, the car barely moved when I pushed down hard on the corners. Anyway, I will post a couple motor pics this afternoon.

Note: The pics were taken before we put the BOV back on or wired the fan completely.

no coolant overflow tank?



edit: woops nevermind didnt see it coming off the other radiator cap spot. i think maybe he should tee in a hose from under the other radiator cap so they both go to the overflow tank.

yeah you have no idea how good it looks in person...that motor is soooo sweet looking. I was super-impressed at how smooth everything looks.
