Made a nice little stainless heat shield hoping it will keep the hood temps down a bit until I re coat the under hood with a liner

Oh definitely did! I got the mc shift fork, thrust washer, and retainer. I didn't measure the snap rings though, I tore everything down and reassembled. If I have any issues down the road I'll just have to open it up again. It was my first transmission rebuild but so far it shifts like butter...
Assembled the r154. Seems to shift fine on the bench, but it's the first transmission I've rebuilt. We'll see how it goes

Had a friend take a few pictures next to a pretty cool partial submarine in town.
Put some Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 275/40 tires on the back. They sure perform a lot better than the other coopers
Also broke the transmission... Parts on the way!

from past experiences when my turbos were having issues and needing a rebuild, my car would only smoke at idle or on startup after being completely warmed up within a few minutes of being shut off.
smoke on decel would also make me think valve seals.
one way i found out my turbo was to blame...
Not even sure where I last left off better but it fit hit the Dyno.
Unfortunately no graph, I haven't asked him for it hey but it made 549/525 at 22psi 15 degrees timing.
Methanol injection is also hooked up. Running a 1000cc before the tb and 500cc pre intercooler
I'll let you pictures...
Good question, I think the dash has one slight crack in the defrost vent barely noticeable. I condition both of them with leather conditioner as well at the same time

If you're still looking for info on the harness let me know, I know it's a little late though.
I built my own harness using the ecumaster emu
Pm is best

I feel like the log manifold will be more Stout and less prone to cracking than the thin tube manifold I was running prior
Cleaned and conditioned the leather interior today. I also put some of the conditioner on the vinyl dash/door panels. I wonder if it will keep them from cracking a little...
Here's how it sits so far, pulls amazing at 18psi with the hx52. Can't wait to see what it puts down for numbers.

None lately, I just moved to a new house with a bigger 15x40 garage. Now I actually have space to work..
Also got my air compressor, welder and press out of storage and all wired up
