Thanks again to Jayson (IdealSupra), Denny (DrBowser3) and Eli (RTASupra). We worked on dropping the engine in sunday night. Started at about 8:00pm and had some minor issues with some things but finally got it all dropped in at about 1:30am. This is a huge step for me seeing almost a year’s worth of work and money finally starting to take shape is an awesome feeling. Still have a long way to go fuel lines, Mounting the IC and Radiator, IC Pipes etc etc etc, but hopefully will be able to get her started within another week or two. Hope you enjoy some of the pics I took, these were taken at 130am with weird lighting and it was raining when I got home from work so I’ll try to take some daylight photos tomorrow afternoon.

So you're the one that's been holding up Jayson from helping me.:icon_bigg

Looks nice, we'll have to hook up, our builds are nearly identical....

I have to say that is one of the most beautiful engines I have seen aside from shops with 100k behind them. Great look man, this is what car enthusiasm is about to me :-D
