                The high points of the meet for me personally will definitely be the dynoing and the track! I wanna see what this thing can do!

                  I want to see the construction/installation of the air pipe and what you do with engine/fuel management.

                      I've got some meat and taters..........................


                      Well good time for an update.

                      After Valentines dinner, I got a couple hours of work in. I degreased the transmission, and installed new axle seals. I also got the new axles installed. But most important I put the motor in. I still have to hook up all the lines/cables, but it's all bolted in place. More updates will be coming soon. I will only have small updates because I have to work also. Enjoy........................................



                      The old axles were beat.................................





                      The transmission was dirty, and I like everything lookin clean so ..............................

                      Before................



                      And

                      After..........................



                      Got the new rear main seal installed............................




                      And got the clutch and backing plate installed.....................

                      A "blue" clutch for a "blue" car............................



                      And i thought about putting the motor in............................Is it going the right way?





                      Oh ok It fits.............................................. ..........




                      And there......................................








                      I've got to weld the header flange on and get the proper gasket but it should be up and going soon ...................
