You owe your buddy a couple beers to the hour! Good thing he is helping you out trying to get the motor prepped before you drop it in.

- Thread starter selbyvince
- Start date
yeah for sure, hes a great guy, and also a member on here. has a bad ass oxford white terminator.
we've made quite a few deals over the past few months with parts and everything else so i just worked in some of his labor into those deals, so it worked out for both of us.

just got a few things to do now when i get home, no reason she cant be running next weekend
just picked up a lfp dual pass h/e to add to the car. . my buddy has steadily been working on this thing for me:
all thats left is to run my fuel lines, plumb up the fuel system at the motor, wire in the fuel pump, install the intake setup and throttle body, and put the x-pipe and catback in. might have a startup vid for yall this coming weekend

...updates?
She's alive!!! As of 11:50 am today. Just in time for 2013. But she damn sure fought us the whole way.
Startup video?
I have one, but i won't be able to upload it until tonight when I get home. Working on the brakes now. Found the op cross threaded 2 of the brake fittings going into the abs delete manifold so the last thing I have to do to finish this (bleed the brakes) is becoming a pain.

Here for start-up vid! Glad its nearing completion, well at until the next project starts the next week.
well guys, she is complete. got her down off the jack stands.. 100% ready for a tune and then the road.. go to back it up out the garage to load it on the trailer to bring it home.. and im getting knocking and popping noises coming from my trans when i let off the clutch to move..
Ive have the trans sitting up in my shop for about 3 years, ive never personally seen it in action since i bought it, so i dont know if i bought a broke trans, or if the fact that it sat in my shop for over 2 years with a small amout of fluid... anyway, im going to try and get a base tune on wed so that the car will idle/run enough for me to at least try to diagnose the problem more. but as of right now, my jan 10th tune date, is out the question. i only have one more day off before my tune date, so there is no way i can get it fixed in time.
anyway, i have a few pics, and a few vids uploading now.. so ill post them here shortly

Effing badass! Did you go with M80s again for mufflers lol?
Thanks guys. It's cold here. And it's flooding with fuel obviously lol, that's why the smoke.
Went with kooks long tubes. Kooks o/r x, and borla stingers wake the dead kind of setup lol. Funny thing is you can hear the fuel pump still over it lol

Nice build and sounds great. I'm jealous
Thanks man,
GREAT NEWS!!!
Found the knocking noise, wasn't my trans. It was a crow bar stuck between my exhaust and the frame lol. It fell out as I was loading it, no more noise! Back on for the 10th for a tune
