I took the radiator support up today and used my newly acquired satin black powder coat - came out sick.




Then I went and painted the fuel tank with some enamel black stuff Jay had - it looks like it will dry very tough.



Got some more stuff @ lunch today. I love having a nice parts place so nearby to where I work.








1.2 bar base pressure That should give you an idea of what I expect to run.

Also bought some DEI wrap for the manifold and some other stuff.

If summit doesn't disappoint I should have some other goodies tonight when i get home.






Few more parts came today


AN vac/boost lines overkill?

Never!





I messed up in the pic I have a -3an 90* fitting on the turbo boost reference but its supposed to be the -4an 90* thats sitting on the desk. The -3an is for the oil feed.


Updateeeeee







How bad-ass does that look? So old school muscle car style!

A few updates!

I went up today and pulled the car out of the garage with my landrover and moved it across the street where our buddy (thanks chris!) let us use his water supply to pressure wash the engine bay. I degreased the crap out of everything and sprayed it clean. My ABS modulator is supposed to be silver?! Oh... haha. Anyway, it doesn't look clean in the cell phone pic but it definitely is. I am going to use Jays suggestions in the next week or so in order to get ready to paint it. It should turn out really good. Going to be black satin with matching powdercoated radiator support which I already posted!

Before:




After:




Heres the sump from behind on the street:




and here you see its not really that low - about 8.5" off the ground



At least its pretty!


Enjoy
