Here are a few pics of the progress. More to come!!

His wife(assumption) is posting in the TCCOA FB with pictures. I can drag them here if there's an issue uploading them.

Looks like a nice 4V build to me!

Monday night eye candy!!

Matt or Joe should be able to help you get back into your old account too.

Good to have you back. The car too.

 

[1MTNCAT]

Thank you guys. Planning on it being more than eye candy, but we'll see. Won't be racing it as much probably but it'll be out there on the prowl.

Looks great Steve! Love the green engine trim. You'll have to replace those skinnies they've probably got dry rot by now.

Looks fantastic! Congrats on getting to finishing position! Can't wait to see it run.

The finished product! Going in the car the 13th.

Thanks everyone.

What color green is that?

 

[Grog6]

I'n curious about the intake mods? who did those? I'm cutting my manifild open, but not there.

What color green is that?

Not sure of the color. Picked it out of a sample color book a while back. Chris may know. I'll try to find out for you.

Don't know for sure. Purchased it that way!

It looks like the intake on that twin turbo Teksid prototype. But that was cut open to fit an intercooler.

I think the green was prismatic powders ultra illusion green and the silver bits were alien silver.

Thanks Big Scott. We couldn't find anything to actually match the paint so we chose that color. Chris did an excellent job on the powder coating. I really like it. It'll pop when you open the hood.

So, soon Stage 1 will be in and completed within the next couple of weeks! Then its on with the bucket list, tuning, etc.

Completed the engine bay and mounted the tranny and starter on the engine today. Its all coming together. Sunday is Install day!

Is this a stock bore block?
I remember seeing a lot of people talking bout big bore 4.6’s with ported heads making almost 100hp more than the regular bore.

you ever came across this? I wonder that’s the cost of such a thing. I’d say the big bores REALLY let the 4v breath
