Fixed my oil leak, finally starting to get all the kinks worked out of this thing. 
Valve cover gasket was so trashed the car was literally shooting oil onto the exhaust manifold in boost. New PCV valve on the way too. Oil change along with new spark plugs today added to the list of things I did. It feels nice to be able to drive around without choking to death...

Question for the ages: Does it move under it's own power yet?

Now now, everyone knows the answer to that
Tommy buys everything BUT the parts to make it move.
But hey, i'm too busy working on other cars to work on my own, so ultimately it doesnt matter which parts I buy first.
On a cool note, did find out that factory GTO manifolds would work with my mount setup, which is a bonus for someone looking to get the swap done on the cheap, so yay for extra good points for my mounts: stock GTO oil pan clears swaybar with no silly bullshit, and gto manifolds can be used.

Yes, Modified crossmember, uses energy suspension poly mounts that are a locked design, they bolt to the stock crossmember after the modification, and then the stock corvette mount brackets bolt to them.
Motor is as far rearward as possible with being able to fit a heater hose 90 on the lower fitting, shifter location doesnt require hacking of the shift hole, uses stock GTO pan, not modified at all.
