I'm sure she's fast as hell
Good luck
btw, how much is all of this coming out to, money wise?

I haven't totalled it all up yet but probably close to $13k in parts for everything. To quote Joe, I chose a lot of top-shelf parts so you could easily do it for much less.

We built Liz's car for $18k (no labor), but her engine was less than a third the price of a 3.2.

I'm shopping for engines for Luck......

He clearly missed my trash talking post in the AZ Caravan thread from this afternoon.

Joe - No posting for you in this thread unless it is an update with pics. I get all excited when there is a new post and then bummed when it isn't a picture of my car driving out of your garage!

And Wills, you must be doing something right.

You had an oil leak and a broken exhaust stud today. Both were easily solved.

Here's the driver's side header installed:

Show what you did with the air flow meter and air cleaner.

How did you mount yours?

The air cleaner is not here yet. The AFM is just sitting there, so the final arrangement is still to be sorted out.

I'm really curious how the oil cooler works out. I've got a 2.7L RS motor to put in and it's going to need some cooling. I really want to keep the full front trunk for traveling, so that's pretty much what I had planned. I was going to be the guinea pig, but I'm happy to let Mike handle it.

I think it will work just fine. Looks nice.

Actually, there was a drive shaft clearance issue at first, but I made some adjustments and really hope there's enough room now.

I plan to drive it on Thursday. We'll know in the next week.

I'm not worried about the cooling at all, only the space.

Rich Johnson runs a similar set up with his 3.0 and has never had a problem.
