Only got a little done today.
Put the engine on the stand and pulled the manifolds to paint it up.
Also started to modify my valve cover to fit the new coils. The valve cover needs to not only milled for the coils but a space needs to be welded back in once it's done.
Pics!!!

it is stock right now and i am going to be running it like that on low boost for a bit until i get some decent supporting mods (6 speed and bigger brakes....im still on 1.6 brakes :S )
no progress with the bay, but i will be ordering parts this week from summit once the payment on my mastercard goes through.

they were for my 1.6 setup which i am parting.
i will be building this engine eventually with stock (10.0:1) compression pistons custom made for boost and some weisco K1 rods or similar.
the pistons have been sold since then.
all i have remaining from that setup that i am selling is the turbo manifold, the long nose conversion and the block.

Finished the bay.
Also painted all of my accessory brackets and things to keep it clean (either aluminum or black.... no light blue or red or something rice)
Turbo manifold **** is also in, so once the turbo manifold is in i can get moving on that....

Look at any top mount ramhorn.
There is 3-4 bends in each runner depending on design. (270 degrees total from the head flange) i have 14 bends.
I did buy more straight pipe than i needed to though. 4 feet. The collector fab will take ~6" of pipe after all of the trimming and such per runner =2 feet.
Gotpsi? do you fab those as well?
