No problem. I had already planned to. I'll probably street tune it myself to get it close and then have John at RRev fine tune it. Thats how I did my last engine. They only had to tweek the fuel curve a little.

Amazing...simply amazing...

Just curious, how did you mount the guage above your start button? Did you have to make a new bracket/faceplate for that section, or something else? Thanks in advance!

If you lok close, there is a new CF faceplate where all the radio controls were. The vent is no longer there and in its place there is another new faceplate to mount the Davtron intercooler temp gauge.

Well, the monster has landed. It was a bitch getting the engine back in the car with the turbo and downpipe mounted. But after a lot of cussing at Murphy (that guy who always screws you with his Law) I managed to get it in on my own. A helper would have made it a lot easier. Now, if Ya overnited my Carbonetics twin disk clutch like I asked, I'll get the clutch and maybe the transmission in tomorrow. Hopefully Brown will show up early. Anyways, here's what it looks like:

Looks good. My question is where did you find those copper locking nuts for what looks like standard size bolts? I could only find them in metric.

Edit:
That's a lie. I have no way of knowing they're standard size bolts... wishful thinking I guess.
