Still need to clearance out about another half inch to get the radiator in there, and a lot of bumper work to be able to fit the intercooler.

Slowly but surely getting there... I've got an MS-II ecu from DIY Autotune that will work with 3 X MSD coil packs for ignition, and Bill Hincher is making up an adaptor plate for a TH-350 trans.

I saw the blonde, then I expected to see what I always see when I click on the blonde on the internet, but there was no blonde :( just a few guys on those two wheeled thingies that kill them here in the DMZ everyday...
If you by chance find the blonde, You know where to find me.

Going to be using a fiberglass cowl hood - stocker won't close on it.
The intake is Gato performance. This is the silver 6g72 project that was partially completed that I bought. I didn't like the amount of work needed on the chassis, interior, etc, so took all the goodies out and swapped into mine. Sold my g54b, r154 trans, MPI, nitrous, etc... and this is going to be the next iteration.

Yeah, it'll be nice to see what this engine can do, since it was famous for that one old picture. It also looks like some of the components could stand to be updated (cough cough turbo and wastegates cough cough!).

I've seen that engine before, where did you get it?
It was started by someone in Florida, then went to someone in Plano, TX, then a friend out in West Texas, and I got it Summertime last year. Finally getting around to making some real progress.

Well it's got Tial WG's and Garrett .63 mm turbos - I'll run with those and see how they perform. I'm hoping to see around 750rwhp on high boost and race gas. We'll see - I know that's setting the bar pretty high though.
