- Thread starter mach1033
- Start date
Getting closer bro. You gotta take a ride to thornwood ny one Saturday nite with me. I chill with a great bunch of guys up there.
Sounds good! :beer:
Transplant went well today she was a little tight as nobody has penetrated her in over a year lmfao!!!!!!!! Got the motor back in,all the suspension buttoned up,rerouted the filter relocation kit,all coolant hoses flushed out along with rad and intercooler, oil lines flushed out, all wiring underneath done, steering shaft modified to fit the headers. Still waiting on the coolant tanks to come back from the powder coat guy, all the correct fuel line and fittings, rims and tires, start up tune, Y blocks, and FPDM's. I was hoping this would all work out and this bitch would be fired up on Friday but that doesn't look like its happening.
Tomorrow trans will go back in along with mocking up the 3 inch exhaust with the Dr Gas X-Pipe and the top of the motor will be buttoned up besides the fuel system. The big Brake kit should be on the front also unless I get held up since one of the owners of the shop will not be in and my manager responsibility will come back into play.

Looking good guys. Cant wait to hear what she makes
Sending my fpdms out tomorrow and once they come back should be good to go for start up. :rockon:
Made small steps today really only got a solid couples of hours of time to work on her. Motor is complete minus tanks and fuel lines (Still waiting on both) Trans is back in along with drive shaft, cleaned the entire topside of the engine bay, started mocking up the exhaust and kept getting pulled away to fix other disasters that took place in the shop. So all that is left is to figure exhaust out, run the fuel system, install tanks, install brakes, prime to motor, fill all the fluids and a/c, then fire that bitch up! The sad part is this will probably take 2 weeks to get done as parts set backs along with time set backs this week were not on my side and I am gonna have to roll it into the dead bay since I have insurance work piling up outside with suspension hits and a motor in a Freestyle that I didn't want to do but being direct repair for many insurance company's I am being forced 
Gotta love CobraBob!
Can't put it back in like that!
Almost a car again

I owe you big time buddy. Once its all done I'm gonna look out for you on parts u need. I know the exhaust is a real pain in the ass.
No problem man we'll get it right and straight. As for mine I am done for now I have over 300 hours in it since March. It's all small quick things it needs now I am just tired of working on it so it can sit now. It came real far real quick I pushed to hard on it and now I am fed up. It happens, my main goal now is yours and getting all this Insurance BS out of the way next week so I can put back up and finish it :thumbsup:
Got the whole exhaust mocked up fitted tacked taken off and welded up today along with the Wilwood 6 piston front brakes installed and bleed. Monday she get's pushed into the dead bay as we are now waiting on a few things to arrive.
Here you go Al I know your gonna be fapping all night long with how the exhaust came out!
All mocked up Custom 3 inch from collector to tailpipe with 4 inch tips!
Tacked in place
Removed as an assembly to be welded together
All back in place and buttoned up!
The band clamps in the last pic are the break away point where the exhaust can be removed if need be.
The Wilwood setup now after that 150mph highway pull you can stop lol
