An update for those who have been keeping up with my progress
Its been a year since the car ran. We cleaned it up the other night after we were done working on it.
If i keep on the pace I am on right now, the car will run by Sunday afternoon.
Here is what is left to do to get the car to start:
-Mount alternator
-fix wastegate pipe
-turbo brace
-radiator hoses
-water hoses to heads from water pump
-oil supply line and drain line
-install battery
-plumb boost controller
-plumb oil pressure gauge line
-plumb boost gauge line
-plumb tranny temp line
-spark plugs
-spark plug wires
-misc small wiring and grounds to attach
As you can see, there is not a lot to do. I can have the car RUN
To drive it here is what is left in addition
-driveshaft (ordering friday I hope and last item that needs purchased)
-install brake master cylinder
-install line lock and prop valve with new lines
-install windshield
-motor limiter rod
Its VERY VERY damn close now.
