Coño Phil; that looks nice! :)

Do you want to build me one?

Very nice! lets beat on it before the motor is broken in! :)

looks great. what was approximate cost for that engine build?

Your going to blow your engine with that reroute. Peter Pan reroute FTW :)

this forum has a brigade of bad ass cars.

The main engine parts and labor were somewhere on the + side of 2k. I lost track long ago. All the little bs stuff really adds up.

Dragon fly, and actually if you pay shipping its yours. I tried selling it for 40 bucks and nobody wanted it.

that swaybar is going to tear the mounts...mine did.

I asked for a quote on those IC kits from FM when they where moving. I gave him my phone number. He said he would sell them all to me cheap. I called back a few weeks later. They threw them all away during the move. Complete IC kits.
I was sick.
I had to buy a mandrel exhaust kit and make mine work.

Did you have the reinforcement blocks in also?

negative. I wish I had those instead of the BR brace which sucks the life out of my soul.

Your car is pure sex. HP goal? More pics when the wheels arrive, and get some videos of your car in action(once its complete)! (please?!).

We need more good videos of the badass cars here on mt.net (this means you too Hustler

Ditching the heater is pretty hardcore in the middle of winter!:giggle:

Thanks man. HP goal is to max out my 2854 see what that gets me then move up from there.

Looking bad ass! Nothing beats getting a car running again and having it do right. DId you end up using the old head? Didnt read in depth into the other thread. Im guessing the seats were redone?

I miss driving my car, and its not even turbo yet. Im spending thousands on other parts and my car isnt even on the road (interior and exterior parts).

Thanks man. Part off what took so long getting it back on the road was trying to find a GOOD replacement head. Mine was shot and the first 2 that I found were crap, then finally I found a good one. I also needed to find a 1.6 long nose crank shaft as mine suffered from that good ole wobbly crank problem and wore out the key way. I had already did the locktite fix on the crank once before and figured since its out lets just get a good one. Finding a long nose crank shaft took a while supprisingly.

Wheels really complete the car IMO. Looks good.

fail. I have 25k on my car with the tubular front bar, the RB brace, and the RB blocks. No issues.

Very impressive. When are we having the annual get-together?
