So far there hasn't been a ton of problems, or anything that was really causeing problems. About one of the biggest clearance problems is the proprtioning valve for the brakes.



And the shifter is a little far forward, so we will have to cut the whole out, and move it forward.



But let's hear everyone's input, and opinion's.

Yeah, you can see were we had to cut the fire wall and set it back 3-4 inche's, because the front pulley was sitting in front of were the radiator should have been.



Also on RX7club, everyone was gripeing over how I messer up the weight balance, and just for everyone the #2 cylinder is right in the middle of the front wheel's, so the weight balance hasn't changed that much.

Damn shippy, need beefyness to hold a motor that was giveing the engine lift trouble on the 1,125 lb. lift point.

Uhhmm that has what to do with anything? It will probably end up a nice dark green, or maybe pearl white, once I get everything done, because the paint is horrible, and is not the original paint. Although it was white from the factory.

Because a TII is what I had when I got this idea.



And the TII has a stronger drivetrain (what's left of it anyways), also it has stiffer suspension, and I don't plan on buying new suspension anytime soon. Because the 7MGTE didn't push the front end down hardly any when we set it on the motor mounts.
