haha yeah. for some reason my heater core was bypassed as well. i figured out why though. seems as if the previous owner used the JDM coolant rail (the one that goes around the engine) so the coolant return line is on the wrong side of the block. ahhh what a mess!! hah but ya gotta have heat! post some more pictures! lol

HAHA i went almost all this winter without heat, and i live in Logan Fucking UTAH, yeah I woke up to -5 degree weather every morning..... i finally replaced my heater core in mid January........ Glad thats over:drink1: :biggrinbo

So yeah i know your pain cold sucks...... why aren't you running A/C? you have the drop down bracket... i would have kept it if i had the choice :nono:

also IMO if you are not running a/c i would mount the alt down there, i think its cleaner and much nicer but thats just me;)

Now..... PUT YOUR DAMN ENGINE IN.... LOL, you really dont have much left so why not finish it up in the car:naughty:

Lots of pics of the build through out the thread Senor Dan... ;) Any particular one you want to see?

Boost: I would drop it to where the AC is, but dont have the $100 or so for that bracket... I have all the stuff for the AC if I ever decide I just HAVE to have it... As for when the motor goes in, Im not sayin... Its like tellin people when yur gunna quit smoking, and then you DONT quit, and they'er all like, you said you'd quit and you didnt cry cry cry... So, my feeling is, one day, this thread will be bumped, with engine IN car pics, and you guys will be like, DAMN JAKE IS A PIMP< and I'll be baskin in supra loooooove! :D:D:D Oh, I will tell you this, I just got off the phone with my fabricator, I should have something REALLY nice on sunday... ;)

Screamer: yes, red paint throughout the bay is my concoction, and it's base is a 1200* paint... I dont think it'll last either... But meh, it probably wont be seen anyway, or atleast not that well... But everything painted has that 1200* ceramic base and it's all been clear coated with high temp clear...

Well, She's about ready to go in... Thought I'd share some engine pics before she gets in the bay... The engine is pretty much done... Wired up, plugs in, lines plumbed... Oh, and I cleaned the fan... Looks good eh?
