Looks like you'll be done in no time at all. I feel the pressure, don't know if I'll be done in time for GSMTR or not. Still waiting on stuff from other people to get done. Great job Lee !!!!!!!!!!
 
Man, coming right along. Have you fired the engine yet. Also, were you able to reuse the factory cross-member or were the mounts too different in your configuration.

Can't wait to see it at GSMTR.

I have not started the engine yet still got to get VATS removed. I use the factory crossmember drop it down approximately 1 inch with steel bushings.
 
well I've decided to send my harness and computer out to 208 motorsports and have the harness reworked and computer reflashed he told me that I could go from 345 horsepower to 420 with the stock injectors and do all the deletes that I need and slim down the harness. if I get this my shifter for the transmission and my exhaust done I should be able to make GSMTR
 
That's awesome Lee, don't think I'm gonna get done in time. Looks like you will win the mandingo award.
 
install my ARB Airlines installed my air tank installed my ARB diff breather waiting on my harness and t to get back from Idaho.

Bill me and my nephew Jay worked on the first phase of my rock sliders with 2" dom tubing.

I did end up making a spacer for my front drive shaft at full drup it only had a inch of splines so I made an inch spacer.

Pictures to follow
 
Guess your ready for GSMTR? Another year and mine isn't going to make it again.
 
If you do have this rig there I'd REALLY like to check out your cable shifter set-up.
I'll be there Thursday-Sunday.
