Got the front suspension done. Wheels look tits (even without tires) just sitting there bolted to the spindles.
I'm just double checking everthing right now before the motor goes. I went and checked the cam timing to make sure it was as close as I could get it, making sure everything is bolted down properly and isn't going to come off after I put it in and go to start it up, I cleaned up the engine bay by removing the old P/S reservoir and charcoal canister, made sure the body wiring harness was out of the way, etc. etc.
Now it's time, boys and girls, for that bitch to go to its HOME!!!!My 2.9L Build!

I made that motor my BITCH!!
Didn't want to go in at first and had to mess with the motor mounts, but it is most definitely in. I still need to shim it up some due to the headers are hitting the fender well, but that is for tomorrow. Right now it is beer time and a time to look at it in awe.
I am still at work/the shop so I will upload the pictures as soon as I get them onto my computer and resize them.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! I feel like a little kid that just got a big ass bag of candy and was told to have at it.
HAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAH!!My 2.9L Build!

Looking good man, why did you drop the engine w/o a tranny though ? I thought it was easier to do it in one shot so that you don't have to strugle with the top engine-to-tranny bolts ?Mtech1 v8 build thread - https://www.r3vlimited.com/board/sho...d.php?t=413205

'Eh, I'm doing this at the shop I work at so I have access to a lift and it's not really that difficult to throw the tranny in by itself, that and I don't get my clutch for about another week and a half.My 2.9L Build!
