Well it wasnt a productive week for me as i was tied up on work estimates all week. The engine is in and for the most part wired up and ready to fire. Im still waiting on a few parts, such as polished alt, wideband setup, smog eliminator and some other small misc.. stuff. It should be all wraped up by mid week then I can concentrate on detailing the entire engine bay. I have to replace some of the old nasty bolts and stuff that you can see but for the most part Im finished.

You might have gotten this question before, but which valve covers are those? Are you going to be running a Fox style TB?

That looks super clean, I love what you did with the fuse box

Thats one of tha parts im still waiting on should be here monday. I just sat the old ALT there for mock up so i knew how i was going to route the wires.

As for the valve covers they are from anderson motorsport and Im still staying with the 94-95 style intake set up. I have a 3/8 spacer for the upper.

The fuse panel Idea came about when i was searching about hiding all the wires and everyone just put it upside down in the fenderwell. I thought why not have access to it? I have a cover for it painted same as the rest it has 2 butterfly fastners to hold it in place. Same with the CAI side.

I sprayed it myself same with the coil. I didnt want any color in the bay just opal black and some polished goodies. So the red MSD had to get changed. Now that the engine is in, I can see all the small detail work I still have to address, but im on a mission to get it done before it sees the road this spring.
