      Thanks :) I had everything in motion to do it this year but had a financial pinch at the last minute. Shooting for next year now for sure. I would also like to go to some nearby out of state ones as well!

          Thanks man!! She sure doesnt skip a beat. In the market for some Euro Bumpers or an M-TECH I kit if possible... M20 turbo is on the engine stand for future mods.

                    So the motor gave out on me about a month ago and I have been slowly been acquiring parts for the rebuild, this is the most recent shot I have:



                    As of tonight I have the motor out and ready for the new power plant -





                    New motor -
                    • Fully rebuilt 2.7 stroker (ETA crank, pistons, rods)
                    • Myster-E head
                    • Megasquirt ECU
                    • Boost to come in a few months after break in, keeping it n/a for now.

                      Love your car.

                      That last pic took me awhile to realize that was your finger. haha

                        LOL, yeah... Obligatory with every motor pull. Thanks for the kind words, she will be back up and going here hopefully in the next few weeks. Bearings were wrong and new ones arrive on Monday.

                            Thanks man, hopefully it will be. Putting together the motor this weekend, waiting on my headers, ecu, clutch and a few more goodies and it's go time.

                              Well got a good chunk of work done on the new motor today. That's all for now, will work on it a little bit more tomorrow :)

                              Fresh from the machine shop -



                              Sprayed the block with high-temp engine shenanigans -



                              Got the bottom end all buttoned up -





                              Put the head/headers on -
