Again,



Thanks to all the people on this forum that have helped me get this done... You know who you are. Hopefully within the next week there will be a nice TO4-S on the side... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png



Fuel system is done compliments of Keith (never get his damn screen name right) hope to get that sucka on next week too... Its in the mail.



Still a few little things to do... Gaskets... Blah blah blah..



This is just a mock up.. Not bolted tegether or anything... Just a bolt here and a bolt there... Wanted to see how it would look.



Still gotta put the alternator pully on there... LOL.. Didn't have a big enough wrench.



Also coated the LIM, Water pump and housing with some ceramic engine paint. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png Looks new.

Awesome man! Thanks again. I'll shoot you an email.. I'm interested in moving the coils... Was actually going to pop a question out there, but you beat me to it. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

Believe me... At first I just wanted to slap it back in... But then I started a little here... Little there, and I got addicted. Too bad we all know it won't stay this clean... :(



Thanks!

Thanks! Got the stand at a local parts store... ~50 bucks.



They are ALL OVER ebay. Just search Engine Stand.



I got the adapter plate at Bi-State here in IL.. But from what I understand you don't really need it. Id ask FD3BOOST about that..
