Chappy, great project. New to this forum. Do you mind if i ask where you got your 911-style gauges? Absolutely fantastic looking.

No words, Chappy. I got nothin'. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)
"Awesome and amazing" seems completely inadequate. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) Thanks for the pics man. Please keep taking us along for the ride. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

No fair!
You put it in with the two side tins removed. I always fight getting it perfectly centered between the inner rear suspension consoles. Looks good! |

The side tins are left on bolted and folded up to the sides, way easier, I got this down to a science, I bet if I wasn't taking pictures and really tried to rush it I could do it in ten.
I usually have to wrestle it a little getting the transmission bolts it. My tail pipe extends a few inches out further than I like so that will need to get trimmed back abit. I will go out and shoot a pic of the rear for ya... |

So do you raise the engine up all that way, or do you lower the car down once you get the motor under there?
I typically roll the motor under the car and lower the car down fairly low and then raise the motor up into the car and get the 4 bolts tightened. I then raise the car up off my jack. |
