Hot damn!
Do you have an ETA? I know you said you are waiting for the block and what not.

Want it running by the end of April, but yea it depends when I get the block back.

Very cool build, it'll be fun to see this thing in action

Thank you! Can't wait to make it to more events this year.. Definitely have a lot to do and learn.

Spent all last night wiping down the bay with wax and grease remover. Spraying the bay tonight with primer, find all the flaws and fix them, then will come the color and clear. First time ever painting with a gun. Should be fun.

Good luck!

I'm honestly very happy with how it turned out. I think I figured out a good spray pattern/ gun control. Granted this is just primer and color and clear will be trickier. Might try and add a little reducer to see if it lays down a little smoother. Only one f-up when my sweatshirt dipped into it on the front clip area.

Got my block back! Just need a few timing components and it can be assembled! Then mostly just waiting for the manifold and wastegates which should be here within a week or two.

And the bay is also now black! Things should go together quickly now..

Got both subframes and all the rear suspension back in. Put in the windshield wiper assembly and the brake booster/ clutch master and brake likes.. Starting to look like a car again. Routed the harness (just have to get a way to mount the harness to the body)

Going to start putting the engine together tonight.

Still got high hopes to make it to PG's
