Default made a lot of ground this weekend. almost running

it first started off as a blown head gasket back in the begining of december. i could have just replaced the head gasket and done a radiator flush, but noooo i had to do everything else. now an s14 Fluidine radiator, Moroso overflow, dual FAL fan, cai , milled & ported head , removed egr system, relocated battery, tranny cooler, nismo powerbrace, relocated vaccum hoses, relocated fuel lines, tucked away enjector wires, and 2 exhaust cams later shes almost ready to run.

just have to connect all the wires & hoses, make one more bracket for the radiator and one for the over flow, flush the block out, make 2 egr block plates, finish the intake, and change the oil and tranny fluid.

mind you FBE and I only worked on my car on weekends under the darkness of night with only one flood lamp, but it all went fairly easy.

im so eager to get it running. should be done by next sat night. hopefully there wont be any bugs or anything like that besides throwing codes for the egr missing. what would be some things that i should check for before i crank it for the first time in 2 months?

oh yeah i will have pics of the engine in and out of the car as soon as FBE emails them to me.

mmm Na Ka
