here's some of mine from back in the day. Yes the rebuild was done in my dining room....well, not to mention but that was also my roomate's truck topper behind the motor....not too much dining went on in there.

Note the dish: 8:1 comp

edit: I don't notice #6 piston in the pic, the funny part is after the motor had been running a while, it kinda melted.

Not really that clean, but only engine shot that exists for my first supra.

edit: I was probably the only one in the world with a blue exhaust manifold...

Ian - Something about your engine bay just screams "I'm ready for business". :biglaugh:

Mike - Pardon the late-night brain farts...but is that in an A80?
It just threw me off as it seems that the radiator is noticably further away from the motor. Looks amazing though, regardless. :love:

Yep. :)

Electric water pump and no mechanical fan. Leaves lots of space. It's a dedicated drag car.

Clean, simple, nice to look at and easy to work on was the goal.

Stay posted. I'll soon have a tastefully clean looking engine bay posted in the near future. :)
