Picked up an Evo. 3 TB and 2g two piston front calipers Tuesday. I've been slowly tearing the head apart at work and cleaning things up.

I finished painting the block tonight. I cannot tell if it looks good enough or not. The sun tomorrow will help determine if I accomplish what I wanted.

I'm also trying to decide if I should grab some NPR pistons while I'm at the level I am or possibly just re-ring the block/pistons. Decisions, decisions!

this thing ever get finished?

I'm just driving it now. After moving to school money fell off in a big way. Then the truck took a dump and I was left to just drive this. The result was a lot more rust than it originally had. I've been tossing the idea around of putting the stock engine from my '95 Talon into this but then I am left to drive my truck.

The truck still needing the front end rebuilt. So I have to find money to do the front end for the truck, then money for various clutch components to make this car a hydro. clutch car, all the while paying for school things. Not to mention I no longer have shop within close driving distance to work on this.

So to directly answer your question no, it was not completed in the way I had originally wanted to complete it. That is not to say it will not change in the future.

I'm also a little curious who decided to change the thread title. There was no ask for a change..

What kind of front end rebuilt does the truck need?
