Thanks.....

Made a little more progress over the weekend..... Got the rest of the longblock all together..... Rerouted a brakeline that would have been too close to the driver side header..... Working on getting the brackets on and aligned right now..... Then I will be able to get the motor back in the car.....

I also decide not to use th EFI stuff so I have sold most of it off..... I picked up a Weiand 7515 Xcelerator intake and a Holley 750 DP to convert to Blowthru.....

Here's a couple pic's of the motor, the last has the intake sitting in place.....

Thanks,

I made all the new spacers for the brackets, now the belt lins up properly..... I also had to modify my water pump drive bracket, because it would hit the donw pipe where I use to have it on the N/A set-up..... I made 2 new spacers for it and added a tab on the bracket so it had a place to bolt up in the new position..... Then the biggie, I was able to get the motor bolted in the car.....

Progress pic's.....

Also what material are you using for your spacers?

Made some more progress..... Got the converter and starter bolted up..... Put the hotside stuff back on and made the crossover pipe between the headers..... Also made a small mod to the end of the down pipe, now the hot side stuff is ready to go to the coater...... I also marked the driver side fender apron where I need to cut the hole for the turbo inlet.....

Pic's as always.....
