    Thanks for the info! I appreciate it!
    Do you mean #4 header tube? And when you say “altered”, are we talking bashing with a hammer? or cut and welded?
    just wondering how much alteration is involved

    I will def let you know about the pump

    The tube at the front of the motor, I think it's cylinder 1. It's been cut and welded. I'll try to get a pic for you.

    I got some more wiring done today. One more corner to go, then I hit the dash board.

    Default Progress!

    It moves under it's own power now! I think my throw out bearing is starting to fail, and the tps seems wonky, but it drives, stops, steers and even half of the electrical system is operational! Now we're getting somewhere...

    Thanks! It's been a battle! I thought It was just a missing parts type project, then I saw the 12v system, and some other questionable work! I'm hoping to be able to adjust the clutch and make life for that throw out bearing a little easier, for a while. After all this, I'm not looking forward to doing clutch work any time soon. It's nice to know that it's actually getting closer to street time (with my fire extinguisher close)! Vrooom! Vroooooom!

    Drove her home from the shop today! Even with the questionable tps, it's a fun ride! Very snappy. And the roar! I can't wait to get the imrc's on it. The low end and mid range torque is impressive, but I can totally feel when she starts starving for O2. I even impressed myself with how well my eyeballed front alignment turned out. Now all I need is some car shows to go to...

    When your car is so damn fast, you need to hold your racing stripes down with rivets...
