    88 sleeper build

    I would say a few things would play into a sleeper look for a engine bay, but mostly color. Like satin or flat black intercooler piping and intercooler, black rubber boots for the intercooler piping as well. When you put a fuel pressure regulator on, you could look for one that is already...

    Swaping an Auto trany into a manual body

    From talking to friends and family PA state inspection can be a pain in the ass or a walk in the park. It depends on whos inspecting your vehicle, for a down pipe I would suggest a "full 3 inch" down pipe that has the elbow that bolts directly to the CT-26, that way it will all be contained in...

    just joined the 1uz club

    Exhaust looks great! What are you planning for thermal protection on the fuel lines and speedo cable? I got some sleeves from Thermo-Tec at Summit for the fuel lines and speedo cable, A LOT of heat gets pent up there. Also, I'm curious why you left the factory tranny cross-member behind.

    N/A at the dragstrip

    I made it down to 15.4 in 86.5 (1/4 mile), cool October night and warm tires, hooked and took off. I was letting out on the clutch during the last yellow light. Had the old school HKS exhaust, test pipe, and a cheap "CAI" filter on the flapper. I have seen 1/8 mile runs, I don't like them...

    Took a day off to go to Carlisle PA for the swap meet, and found a couple of neat shift knobs. I also got my new brake booster for when I pull the engine, this one is for a 86 Toyota Truck. Hopefully this will work out.

    Got this in the mail :icon_bigg Pulled the stock shifter out and was amazed how clean my top plate was still since I did the engine swap... This is the fist test fit, before I put the other rubber boots on: So far I'm loving it, I have about 100 miles on it...

    Thanks, I'm enjoying it! :) On a update note, here soon, I will be pulling the engine and replacing it with another, from day one the current engine has had somthing wrong with it, but I kept positive to see maybe it just needed to be run, but now its condition is degrading. More to come...

    Stock wing placement

    Ok, here are some photos, note; dimensions shown are approximate and depending on the angle you look at them the dimension will seem to change, measure twice "cut" once. I think the hardest part was finding the center of the hatch horizontally, I used string (for future I would suggest wire or...
