Got it almost ready to drop in:

Engine is almost ready to go in: Just need some help finding where a few hoses go. What hose goes here? Left side of the intake manifold. Looks to be coolant, but I don't see anything. Where does the other end of the idle valve go to with this throttle body set-up go? I know where it...

I hate updating my thread for small stuff, but If I don't I will forget. Got my Morimoto Mini H1 projectors out of the old 7x6 housings they were in. Ordered new housing. May try a sleepy eye mod with custom bracket. I am following the sleepy eye mod w/ projector thread pretty closely. Also...

Your thread is an inspiration. That Red Engine Metallic paint is an amazing color. If I wasn't doing a black and blue theme in my bay, I would have used it. I ordered the Pearl Black instead. Keep up the amazing work!!

Pretty much where I am at. We(my grandpa and I) were talking about possibly taking the head off and making sure everything is okay from the cams being off so much. Final conclusion was not to worry about it. Build it up right from the Bare block and head. Going to shim the oil pump and check to...

:ttiwwp: Can't wait to see how this turns out

Looking at getting a vented gas cap in the near future. Updates!! Before: After: Pearl Black from VHT. Looks great. I swear the more I tear into this engine. The less I think it had only 1000 miles on a mild rebuild with completely new gaskets and a good cleaning. Most of these "New...

As you can see, it's broken and zip tied. I'll try and fix it soon

I figured that is what it was.

Thanks. Unfortunately they are non momentary switches, so they won't be of use in the doors. I will just have to find a use elsewhere. What is this used for, and should I fix it? I was also wondering if I could delete the charcoal canister. I did it on my old c900 and didn't see...

Spent all day painting. Got the engine bay done, as well as some other small pieces.

Made a lot of progress today... In the wrong direction. After looking it over, we found the Cams to be way off when on top dead center. The guy I bought the engine from said it was fine. There have been so many bolts/nuts missing or used in the wrong place. So I decided to start over. Top...

Was up late last night and made an impulse buy: Two On/Off switches One Momentary Switch and another part to make it harder to steal. Going to go for a Keyless push button ignition, WHILE retaining the ability to use the key if I want. Shouldn't be too hard, but I guess i'll see when I get...

Just ordered a lot more LED's and wire to redo the gauge cluster to try and get rid of the glare. Also need to modify the needle on the Prosport gauges to be green. Should be interesting to see how that goes. More Pictures: (The pictures I was going to post the other night were not very good.)

In for updates, You previous build was pretty great.

Still up in the air about the results. The needles don't look nearly as bright in person.

The LEDs are a bit on the big side I'm not completely happy with the results, but I think it came out pretty good. The needles won't be so bright. The 12v source I was using was actually 15-16vdc which is closer to the 14v the alternator should put out. Volt gauge in...

Thanks, I did soak it in some pretty strong not-so-diluted degreaser, then made sure to take a stiff brush in there to clean as much stuff off as possible. Could have been cleaner, but I felt comfortable with how clean it turned out. LED's for cluster and other Misc. Projects, I...

Thanks! Pictures I was suppose to post: Cleaning up all the rust from the leaking master. Ignore the blue, it's so I will remember to change it as soon as possible as fund become more available. After cleaning inside pan. Was black, nasty, and full of...
