Default Finally! I'm so excited

4 months later! I am so pumped! Got a few pictures. First off, we started the engine and it started immediately. Ran it for about 40 secs. and turned it off. No leaks. Good. Turned it back on, the mechanic saw the oil light and turned it off. No oil pressure. Uh oh. Turns out he switched the oil relocator lines and the engine ran with no oil pressure the whole time. Everything is working fine now, no visible damage to rocker arms or camshafts, but I hope nothing ugly rears its head in a few months. I notice my downpipe is in a diff. position than other Lovefab setups. I had to bend my AC lines and move the fusebox. I'm also going to have to get a smaller battery for it to fit. Plus, I have to roll my fenders...Bottom line is it's running and it'll be able to get on the dyno tomorrow!!!! Here are the pics. My mechanic bought a powdercoater and used my valve cover as his first project. I think it turned out well. Enjoy! I couldn't be happier. Can't wait to drive it.
Jonathan

I think that since my turbo is different and he had to custom make my downpipe, he turned the flange too much twisting everything off to the side. I had to move extra stuff, but it should turb out okay I hope.
