well time for an update..

i got the intake and imrc plates off the doner engine, cleaned and painted. i finished the panel on the firwall, painted that and bought some nice button head bolts to hold it in. i also got the harness for the ecu mounted in and i got the engine harness cleaned up and ready to go...

tomarrow my intake gaskets will be in so i can mount that on the engine and put the wiring together.. looks like the biggest coming hertal will be the fuel system, i still dont have one. i geuss an inline holley pump will be eaiest.... thanks
