Ok, we didn't get very far, but at least we started! We decided to get it painted before dropping the motor (which we picked up from the machine shop last Saturday) in.

The short block is a 6 bolt running 2g Nippon Racing pistons on 1g rods, ARP rod bolts and ARP main studs. Our machinist was pretty impressed with the Nippon pistons. He said they look like good quality, especially for what we paid Guess we'll find out when I start running high boost.
 
I'll be following this one, I already built my car I just need to start the paint and finish the interior, lack of funds have forced me to slow down.... sucks

Great looking project so far :)
