Got more progress done yesterday. Just waiting on JM Fab manifold and intake manifold to get back from welder. Also picking up some new bolts from dealer today.This is the tedious part of the build.


Here is that power-steering setup Id been working on. It came together nicely.

These are a few of the fittings I have to pick up today.

The underside is the part I think I am most pleased with that most will never see.

 

[godschylde777]

Got water lines done.

Amazing build and great progress, subscribed so I can keep up to date on it. I lived in the Spring/Humble area back in 2006 when I attended school down in Houston. Can't wait to see more updates!

3 of them are avid the other (front), is a torque solutions. And thank you sir. Look, I had no skills before, I sourced books and people around me with a lot of knowledge and patience. I bought tools as I needed them and made a lot of mistakes. I wanted to give up and almost did, but I stuck in there with the encouragement of those same people that had been there along the way. Many think its about money, it was not, it was about me wanting to build a shop level car from my garage. You can do it too bro, just make up your mind.

So here she is motor in her and all that's left is the exhaust manifold and turbo. There is still plumbing to be done and wiring, but for the most part she is almost there. I also have to bend some nitruos lines but that is all fun and games to me.

[godschylde777]

I got the nitrous lines finished.

 

[godschylde777]

I finally got the fuel lines hooked up.

 

[godschylde777]

Well today I got the under body wire brushed and rubber coated. Made a bit of a mess but it was well worth it. I did not take pics yet, but I will tomorrow after I run the new fuel line back to the fuel cell. It is amazing how many times things change on the car during the build. Some things I have changed and or improved. But that's a lot of unnecessary detail. Many say this build is long, but i will say to build something like this properly it will take time. I was in no rush, and after looking at the level of my car, I am glad I was not. There are some on here my car will never touch, such as my pal Greengoblin, Dixxerdrew, Twix69 (Tre), and many more. I have learned something from them all. I am grateful for their much needed help.
