More progress this weekend which included:

- Filled trans with oil
- Mounted a/c compressor, belt tensioner
- Installed new header collector gaskets and resealed y-pipe connection
- New custom front brake lines installed - Courtesy of Adam
- Vacuum line and other accessory connections made/ Fittings tightened / Things hid - Courtesy of Matt
- Cooling system plumbed
- Wiring harness run and all connections made sans a couple items
- Silly 4" 120 deg blower inlet mounted


What's left:
- Connect fuel lines to rail (bought new clips for safety which should be here in a couple days)
- Install brake master, fill will fluid, checks for leaks and bleed
- Extend the Hobbs switch wire from passenger to drivers side
- Finish blower intake
- Reconnect ground and power wires
- Connect charge pipes from blower to intercooler
- Mount new catch-can and run hoses
- Re-install rad fans
- Reconnect methanol lines
- Install battery
- Check all connections (Vacuum, wiring, etc)
- Prep fire extinguisher and bake depression brownies

A couple quick engine shots. Matt did a great job cleaning things up. It's still busy but it looks worlds better than it did before.





Not a great pic but Adam did a great job with the lines. The K can now be dropped (I hope not) without having to remove the brake lines.
