So quick up date:

Re-wiring the car again and installing a ECU Master PMU 16. This will eliminate all the relays and fuses and make the wiring a lot cleaner. Once the wiring is complete the intake to the blower and the exhaust will be fabricated. Also changing the fuel lines under the hood to tubing for a cleaner and safer install.

My dream is an e30 with a LS3

Welp, I'm pretty much sold on a LS swap after reading this thread.

Those buttons are awesome!

The "Front Diff Lock" and "Rear Diff Lock" are exactly what I need for my AMC Eagle project.

Nice! How is the button panel attached to the dash?

I glued it inside the frame (item 5). It has a recessed face

Worked on the button panel last night. Found a piece of abs plastic and cut it to fit where the OBC went.

Superb build so far. Glad to see you're taking your time and doing things right the first time. Those welds were haggard AF ^. Wish I would have been following the build up to this point could have chimed in a few times .

Keep up with your build progress...sub'd :up:

Thanks

Well doesn't look like I'm going to make TX2k:(. The AN fittings a had welded to the blower lid started leaking. The same shop did the same crappy welding job on the heat exchanger inside the blower lid. I had this work done about 4 months ago and the shop would not stand by their work. I blame myself for 1. accepting the shit work 2. For not looking the shop up.

Anyway I found a awesome shop in Houston, Speed Lab Creations. I had those guys finish the work on the blower lid. Man what difference. I'm going to have these guys build my exhaust for me to. Tried looking around for other speed shops but everybody is booked because of TX2K. They will be able take my E30 after the event. Oh well no sense in rushing now.
