Re: My other little project

I should update this

I painted the engine bay a couple of weeks ago:

Before:



During:



After:





started getting the bay prepped for the motor and trans:

Cleaned up and mounted both headlight motors:



Mounted brake booster and catch can:



View from the back to the front:



And an overview:



I also got my alternator bracket mounted:





Radiator hoses (see quarter for size reference).

Since I was installing the engine/tranny by myself, lots of covering was necessary



Engine in and bolted down (trans is still resting on a jack as I have to move the mount ~6" forward):



Space with the relocated radiator support:



Space behind the motor... about 1-1.5"... perfect...



Intake installed:



Headers/turbo installed:





Relocated fusebox:



VERY tight fit... but it will be nice and snug:



Front view. Note the tranny cooler lines... they ended up being the perfect length.



IC tubing installed:



IC installed:



We started building my exhaust last night...



And then we got the fittings welded to the radiator and water pump. It only looks like I planned it to fit this well... believe me... I just got lucky LOL.







In other news, I'm selling the GSX if anyone is interested.
