Is that your business partner's engine that you came to L&M to discuss???

Yes, we have to solve the coolant crossover issue and the turbo headers.

Have a terminator and a cobraR 2000 hood to testfit to see which one clears. Hope the termi would fit as I like it the most.

I can't see the picture now and looks like my ISP's DNS are dead to most request, is it there still?

Water crossover is almost done, just some welding and bung relocation, a new black PA alternator will be ordered, just waiting on a possible date to tow the car to the pipe guy to convert the turbo headers from the 2V to the FGT and a few days before that will swap the engine.

Have to redo the harness and have a termi and a CobraR hood at hand for test fitting.

Is coming along nicely.

Forgot to add that also FGT coil covers are on the way.

Sincerely, make nice power on our 91oct pump with a well mannered car, expect around 700 on 14psi, obviously, after it is done, a run with race gas and 20+ will be done, hope to break the 1000 with it.

New coil covers came, water crossover pipe has been cut, welded, new attachments and powder coated. Only waiting on black alternator and some AN fittings for the PCV.

After that, will just wait to a date to take it to the welder to mod the headers from 2V to FGT. Days before we are going to fit it in. Hope this happens soon as we anxious to start it!
