As soon as we are both ready we will line them up.



Honestly if I had to guess I would say August time.

My motor came today and it is fantabulous.



Silly and it makes me smile.



I was hoping to have it running this weekend but I dont have a gasket for the water pump, a fitting for the WP, the intake gaskets and a few other things. Oh well maybe next weekend

and here is my dilemma. The 90mm intake setup aint gonna clear the hood so I am going to have to do some sort of scoop. Any suggestions?



Here are pics of the clearance problem.

I actually cut the bracing and lowered the subframe by about an 1/8" and I can close the hood.



I have an adapter a guy made on the way that will angle the TB to give me about 1/2" more clearance so I shouldnt have to cut the hood.



The car should be running this weekend
