well the motor is finally finshed w00t. went up to the shop and we installed the motor, trans and a new radiator since mine was cracked. all in about 3 hours work now it's just a matter of finishing the turbo setup and she be back on the road. unfortunately just in time to ship it overseas. no pics, was not expecting to leave work and go up there today, just so happened that i got the radiator today and it needed to be delivered(awesome excuse to get off work at noon) will be completed by saturday or sunday. still waiting on my lienholder letter to ship the car so i might get 2 days with it who knows.
