There that looks better...
Here is the progress, The Water pump is back on and all the pulleys are where they should be.
The engine is in time but I still need to play with the tension.
The belt is just there for now so if the crank is moved, the valves can never touch the pistons.
I'm starting to get REAL ******* EXCITED
The engine is almost done. Basically, Belt tension and an Oil Pan...

More work on the intake Manifold. Took it back to nothing cause I was unhappy with the small pits in the Aluminium. You can see than most of the raised parts have been ground flat!

I think I hit the Intake manifold from 10% to 90% Today. Holy crap, it's a very intricate design and hard to get into all the areas with any type of power tool, so my hand is the "Power Tool"
Check It Out..
It's once again not finished and probably will **** me off till it's finally bolted to the engine..

Hmm, I think it would be funny but I can't see it becoming a "Feature"

The Top Is a REPOST...
Here is the basic idea for the 944 Fuel Delivery. The car is capable of unreal cornering that will only be better when it's 2100 Lbs. I have designed a system where the fuel will not slosh to one side during hard cornering. The 5 Gal will feed a 1 Gal with Double outlets. This will serve as a "fuel buffer".
During cornering even if the fuel in the 5 Gal is on the side of the tank, the 1 Gal will still be full. When the car goes level again, it will top up the 1 Gal.
The second Fuel tank is on the way with the Stainless Braided Fuel lines.

Holy Crap...Long Time No Update.
The second fuel cell for the 944 has been won,
It's a 1 Gal Sealed unit from RCI.
If all works out well, the 5 Gal, will feed the 1 Gal which will sit below it.
Here is a shot of what I'm talking about... But mine is New, this is just some crappy picture I found on the WEB..

Ok, Today I made a cool discovery...
I have seen thousands of 165 Mph Porsche Speedometers, but when I researched it, there was a 180 Mph Speedo available for one or two years on certain models. I waited on E-Bay for two months for one to show up and won it.
Here is the Cool thing.
My car came with a 275 Km/H Speedo (Canada)
It was broken. I replaced it with a Rare 180 Mph Speedo but it was in bad shape.
I Won a second Broken Speedo with Indoglow that had a good case and glass to fix the 180 Mph Speedo that I won.
When I removed the indiglo off the second Speedo to sell it, The Speedometer had a 165 Mph “IndoGay” cover was covering a 180 Mph Speedometer.
Thus I have One that is for my car in mint condition and a second one that I do not need.
They are $300.00 on E-Bay..
