progress has been slow lately but its getting done

I didn't go crazy with the body work, i just wanted it to look good not perfect so i wasn't filling all the factory holes and smoothing everything. But either way it still turned out pretty nice.







Started pulling apart the motor and found this on the 6th cylinder, almost looks it was sitting with coolant in the cylinder? I'm planing on taking it to my local machine shop soon to see if this will be a problem because its being bored 1mm over.



These goodies also came in!


Starting playing with the engine bay , might be a little to flashy

Didn't get a chance to post any pictures last weekend but I've got a few things done since then

Got all the rust taken care of and started seam sealing all the factoy seams to make them nice and smooth



Probably could have gotten away without notching this but i wanted the extra room.


I had to notch the bottom out. Lots of welding and grinding pretty much


Intercooler mounts all made up.


heres how the intercooler fits

If you replace the stock cam with a Z45 or similar 4-500hp @ 1 bar boost shouldn't be a problem :)
I was really happy with the performance of my 2,8 M20 with a PT6765.
