Yeah if we shoot for like Thursday/Friday I should be ready as I plan on not working Wednesday so ill have all day to button stuff up.

So stupid me installed the 5 speed drivers front after telling myself a 100 times that make sure you install the auto one. Sure shit went to bolt the carrier bearing to the block and noticed the shaft barely in the trans. So lost some time today but I got everything out now just have to put it back. Not a huge deal but meh...

I got the harness in last night but have to loom it now so I know where things go and make it look uncluttered. Hard to do though as there's a ton of stuff uner the hood.

Here's a pic though from a few nights ago.

I ended up having to work tomorrow so I'm gonna tackle a lot of the stuff tomorrow night and hopefully turn the key sometime Thursday.

Ahh, I wish I had this weekend off, I wanna see it run!

**4seasons69** · 06-05-2013

I think I should be free Friday after work, later Saturday evening, or Sunday if you want some help

**CornFed2.4** · 06-05-2013

Yeah just send me a text. Hopefully I get it to the point tonight where all I have to do is turn the key.

Axle and t-case back in
Turbo back exhaust installed
Valve cover is back on
Raised the car up a few inches and set her back on the ground.

I dumped 4.5 qts of rotella 15 40 into int tonight and a bottle of zinc additive so that's done to.

Just need to put the wide band in, and redo my power wire coming from the fuse box and should be good to go.

Thanks Carl for stopping out and setting up a base so I can start this thing with a little more confidence now.

12's here I come!!!

It sounds like you should be able to start it up tonight. Thanks for all the parts.

Well that was fun. (w/ Tom and Joel)

Not sure how but it started on fire.

**CornFed2.4** · 06-07-2013

Oops double post.

C3L1CA · 06-07-2013

Everythign ok?

**CornFed2.4** · 06-07-2013

No damage somehow. Definitely a holy shit moment. Toms got a pretty sweet pic.

After the fact and it happening all I could think of was quoting FF and yelling "naaawssss" I cause I thought it would blow up. Lolz

On a side note we did get it started and it sounds beast! It's just to bad there's an oil leak so we stopped for the night.

Also if you own an auto and it doesn't start make sure you check the neutral safety switch before you go digging through a bunch of ignition wiring and repays.

Thanks Tom for getting it started

**goodhart** · 06-08-2013

Holy shit! Fire must not have lasted long?

**CornFed2.4** · 06-08-2013

Maybe 30-40 seconds. Felt like forever it only melted a few wire looms and heat shrunk a few wires I forgot to

.

All in all though I didn't have to do anything underthe hood besides swap rails to get it to start. So that's good.
