Looks good Ken. Lots of work for a weekend project. All this work with you has given me the need for speed so I bought a GT3071R BB turbo. Should be here in a few days... pretty sure it will go on the black TGP with a few other mods.... :icon_biggrin:

!!!!!!!!!!!!That rocks Adam.  Totally thanks for your help and advice.  Hey I took that shot of the turbo to show your the clearance, how does it look?  How did those mains look?  Pretty bad eh? 

I thought the black car was supposed to be your dd and not modified ;)  Shh just don't tell the gf she will never know!  I'm sure that black car will be crazy fast with that turbo and your tuning. 

It was a ton of work I started pulling the engine last Tuesday after work and had it out Thrusday night only working a few hours a night.  I built the bottom end Friday night, Top end Saturday and had it in the car Saturday night.  Sunday was lining up the front mount and connecting everything.....Monday was troubleshooting code 33 and tuning for the cam......and washing the car to get all my greasy prints off.

Meltboy you got my number right?  I'll be in town this weekend so give me a call, if you come by Saturday we can go to the local cruise in at the town square mall and show off the cars.  Usually happens around 5 pm. 

Mfewtrail yeah I was running a stock 2.8 cam.  This cam does not have that lopey idle thing going on, I can hear a little bit but I still have that stock SE exhaust!  I feel like the car has more top end but I have not ran it over 3500 rpms since the motor only has 75 miles on it since the rebuild.  I'll find out for sure in a few hundered miles.

Thanks for the support guys.......it was a lot of work.....but I'm glad it all went together with no major problems.  It actually only had that one bug *crosses fingers*

jebus that was fast. It's been a month and I still haven't finished replacing my oil pan gasket :lol: Good 1/4 time too! I can't wait to finish debugging my car and actually getting a chance to drive it and get real times.
