Blacksheep? I was thinking about talking to him about doing the cage in my car. I don’t know him personally but I have a few mutual friends.

Posted the turbo setup up for sale on fb. Sold in less than 2 hours for full asking price. Guess I priced it reasonably enough lol. Ben from gpi ended up buying it. Cant wait to see how far he pushes it!

Bought the cable fuel pump drive pulley setup, vacuum pump kit, and low mount alternator setup from robert ette at aei cnc. He specd me a 13.2gpm enderle pump for my switch to methanol.

Pic of said drive kit

Got the firewall cut enough to get the motor in. Will have to go back and cut more out after I make the mounts for the front/midplate.

Who would've thought it would free up that much space. I will be converting to manual steering as well. Cant wait to get this thing finished up and back on the scales!

Got the trans tunnel cut for the mid plate. Just have to weld the brackets for both plates in. From there I can get the trans back in and make a new mount for that and have the driveshaft shortened

Ordered a set of the flowtech turbo headers. 1 and 7/8 primary, 3" collector. Part number 11537FLT. Going to install those before welding the brackets for the plates in to make sure I have the room for them

Headers fit with plenty of clearance around everything. Egt bungs and maven turbo mounts came in as well. Next up welding the brackets for the motor plates in

Got the midplate and front plate brackets welded in.

Got the trans bolted up. Super shocked it fit without any more cutting! showing a negative 3 degree drivetrain angle which is around what I was shooting for.

Will make a trans mount and measure for driveshaft tomorrow. Hoping to start forming the firewall next week

Turbo tacked in place using the new maven mount. Made life 100% easier mounting it
