Yes they are .

Do you still have the Shearer?

Amazing build! Not sure how I missed this one, but just read it all! So many things I have wanted to implement in my build, thanks for the detailed photos and posts! Definitely gives me some motivation I have been needing.

Oh thank you so much. I am grateful for the praise.

So the day has finally come for Gracey to get the motor put in. It's been a long time coming. I have come to the understanding that I have procrastinated for so long because I was afraid of the build failing. Like what if it doesn't run, or it blows the motor on the dyno. All these things have gone through my mind for the longest. So I procrastinated finishing her. A good friend of mine told me that things most certainly will go wrong, however it will not be unlike any other obstacle I have overcome during the course of this build. So here we are, getting tapped up, and heading for the shop.

While I had Gracey on the trailer, I got the thumbs up from a guy driving a Lamborghini. I was like wow.

Love the build man!! Been following you for years on the link forum and just stumbled upon your build here. Curious were you got the PS high pressure fittings, I'm in the process of tucking my PS lines and been trying to find these fittings.

Hahaaa no, I was afraid because I was afraid to fail. However, now, I am loving to see it come together.

So we got the drive line in yesterday. I feel like I'm in a dream teehee. There are a few bolts missing, however I ordered them all new from dealer. They will be here Tuesday. That is for all you nitpickers . " Your missing bolts, that's going to come off during acceleration " ( In my granny voice, while shifting )



I am going to go back under the car and clean the under-body more with a wire wheel and coat it.
