I liked the idea it made things alot easier to mount and access.

I actually ended up ordering up some stuff today, and found it all on JEGS... I ordered a 10 Gallon Aluminum cell, Misc AN Fittings, 25' of fuel line, And a oil catch can.

I hope to have it all by thursday that way i can get it in before the weekend, I will be picking up the EMS probably on Saturday and can hopefully button up most of my wiring before the weekends over, Maybe even see if it starts

Funny that you asked, Here are some new pix as of today, I have a couple more coats to put on but it doesn't look to bad so far.

Thanks to all that commented, After being at a bunch of events this summer and riding in everone elses car it started to give me some motivation to get this thing on the road.

Did you get your EMS yet? If not I have one or sale with sensors and everything at a good price. It's looking good! Is that primer or is the car going to be flat black?

[niterydr]

That setup looks somewhat familar....

Good luck with it all!

It should sound something like this. Pending your cam size, compression ratio, port job and what you do for exhaust.

I haven't gotten it yet, but i should have it soon. If that falls through i will shoot you a PM.

It will be flat black, I have a buddy that works at welle and he was telling me that they make a "muscle car flat black kit" so im going to go swoop that up and see what i can do with it.

Your a funny guy you know your car isnt gonna be done before that... And the chances of mine being done and broken in before that is slim to none.

Right here is where ya started to go wrong.


MOTOMAN BREAKIN FOO!

Looks great, although that throttle cable mounted to the firewall is going to give you problems, like a non-linear throttle opening when the engine tilts a bit under load. Personally, I'd mount that bracket to the manifold. Everything else looks great, can't wait to see it out on the road. I'm also kinda glad you didn't have it done for the dyno shootout, I like my trophy.

[GREASEMONKEY]

I dont think i will have to many problems with the motor tilting, Its in there pretty solid. Does anybody else on here have it setup like this? Any issues?

I have all prothane mounts right now and i was thinking of fabbing up a solid front one this weekend but i dont even know if i need it. I will probably just make it and wait to see if i need it.

[blageo23]

Lookin Good, I would also worry about the throttle cable on the firewall.
Go to the Mitsu Dealer and spend $13 and get an EVO oil cap!

[Goat Blower]

The engine still moves even with poly mounts, if you make any real powah.

[Pushit2.0]

Make solid front/rear mounts, thats what I did.
