Wow!! I can seriously say that I don't recognize my old car. Amazing build and great work -- post some vids of the beast in action!

looking good -- for the brake lines can you confirm the fitting size into the ABS pump. Is it 10mm x 1.0? I'm about to order a number of parts for a similar brake conversion.

Thanks

Correct

Looking good!!

Since you already refinished your sub-frame, just use the sub-frame riser bushings. No welding.

lol, you'll be back. I don't like the neg camber being up so high, especially since it only gets worse when you floor it and the car squats. I'm about to drop the subframe again and put the tabs on..

Looks great man.

Here are some random pics of the rear suspension. Nothing is more fun than reinstalling new parts. Makes things MUCH easier and cleaner..











Yes, somehow during ALL my planning I TOTALLY forgot to install a rear camber kit. Im already paying for it with some negative camber and a bit of toe-in on the rear wheels. Im too damn lazy to remove it the rear subframe and install the kit. So Im going to complete the car, drive it and take a day to drop the rear and burn them in....

Got another shipment in...

Exhaust in a box. 2.5" pipe, X-pipe, Magnaflow Muffler. I wish it came ready to be installed...lol



So here is my new brake system. -3 Aeroquip PTFE line, Steel fittings. Again, I wish it came ready to be instlaled...



New fan. 14" rated at 2250cfm??? I seriously doubt it but who knows.



New Axles!!!



-12 fittings and hose. -12 hose ends will be welded on to my water pump and 90* fittings will shoot the hot water to the rear. I hate hose clamps!!



Just started mocking up fittings...







Here is the rear T-fitting for the rear lines...

[decay]

Nice progress, I too was WTF about the gaskets you've used.... lol!

[Wiglaf]

awesome project!

and +1 on finding a girl to help, cleaning that gunk off wires is an annoying pain in the ass
