Prolonging the Procrastination...

Very clean build! Can't wait to see the numbers on this bad boy.

[TexasTerp]

wow, this is a huge inspiration. I'm totally going to get my small engine parts PC'd now, looks so much better than my paint jobs on them. can you get some more pics of the engine mount modification? I'm going to run a td setup as well and was considering a different modification.

That's one seriously beautiful M20. I may be a 24V swapper, but a cleanly-built M20 makes me just as happy as it ever did.

Agreed. The m20 looks sexy as heck.

Tell Todd I said Hi next time you speak with him. His kids must be getting big now.

Hey Greg! We moved back east. Will you be at the BavAuto show?

Car looks great Bob!

So.... Ive been so busy in the last few weeks that I really havent had a chance to work on the motor. I stopped by Bluntech world headquarters last week and picked up the last significant hardware order for the motor.

I'll just throw up some pics and let them do the talking. At this point, I'm ready to take it off the stand, bolt up the clutch and flywheel, put the tranny on and then put it back in the car. I have a million details to address but I will do that over the winter once I get the car down to my other garage.

Wow, have missed this up until now. That motor looks beautiful, and the progress so far is excellent.

[TwoJ's]

Looking great. I think I've said it before, but I love that manifold. It puts the turbo in the perfect (for me) position and it looks wonderful all polished. The opportunity cost of the tiny bit of potential flow is well worth having their exhaust manifold. Way to go man, keep it up!

Fresh motor build with boost = automotive porn. Great work.
