I am not sure if I can cut my temp sensor so I will probably spend the morning trying to decide what to do (big *** washer or cut the ******). That is my hangup rite now. If I get it together and running I will go with you guys but really don't want to enter it because it looks like ****. I put one fender and headlight cover on and it is painfully obvious the color doesn't match. I am pretty pist at myself for picking the guys who I let paint it paint it.

I am putting the car back together today. I made the brackets for the radiator and intercooler, flared all the piping, finished installing the coolant reroute, reinstalled the cas and coil packs, and soldered my temp sensor wire back on. Now I am trying to figure out what one wire goes to and I should be able to fill the coolant up, start it, and fix the leaks.

Mine has been sitting since before the car show. I have a lot going on work wise and dont really have the time right now to **** with it.

I actually debated for awhile whether or not to just start taking it apart and part it out. The plan is to order this china turbo, put a restrictor in my oil feed line, and see how it goes.

I'd like to keep it and finally enjoy all the work I've put into it. But there comes a time when enough is enough, and I've just about had enough.

there will be raffles for all kinds of stuff as well as all money raised during the day will go to make-a-wish.. last fall we raised over $1000 from about 200 cars and this year we would love to break that amount

Dibs on the Artech stuff....but it'd be a shame to see it parted out...

Well I got everything back together in anticipation of starting it. Filled the coolant up with the front end of the car waaaaay the **** up and had 2 almost steady streams coming out from under the car but it only started when the system was completely full. Figures. So one was coming from the heater hose (from the head), tightened that one up lickety split. The other was coming from the freeze plug...so drain away I did. Then when trying to get it out I accidentally pushed it into the block. That sucked a big one. After ******* with it (imagine monkey ******* a football) for 5 minutes or so I got that bitch out. I will be getting a new freeze plug tomorrow and trying again and will hopefully get ignition. When and where is this dyno? I need to have some new goal to try to finish my car for. I am also trying to get it done before this temp registration expires (friday)
