Memorial wknd engine install!

[MI6TA]

Getting very close to wrapping this up! Motor is built, clutch, tranny attached. K member dropped. Just need to re-run 2 brake lines before we drop the motor on the K member. Soon there will be an idle video if all goes to plan. Still a few weeks out but I'm excited.

Today she goes back in! Been working for 8 months as much as I can to save up the $6500 it's taken to build it the way that I want. All the long nights and weekends spent in the garage to get to this point. I want to get it running by the end of this month.

Stripped out the driver side head thread for the steam pipe so we drilled it out tapped it and made our own steam pipe with transmission line and brass fittings. Props to the Internet for the idea. 29471

Hooker Headers took some small Allen screws 3/4" and then cut off a 1/2" bit of a Allen key and turn it with a wrench to get em to fit in between the header pipes. Made it work though.

Looks good. Once it's in you'll be ready to fire in no time.

That's the hope. Get as much done before it's in the car again and too tight to get to. The computer and harness, new injectors, and y pipe are the big things once it's back in the car
