QBE- Thanks man. Yup, boost will be my fall\winter project.

Paul T.- No REAL reason for the auto trans.. Just a preferance I guess lol. The engine is built from the bottom up.. I didnt spare an damn thing.. There are NO stock internals in that engine or head, well besides the lightened and polished crank

It looks so good bro! I'm glad I could help you out all the times you needed. I'm sorry I was out of it the other night about the axels, but we got a good laugh out of it later. I can't wait for the trip next weekend to get my Z kit. We will head out early so we get back earlier in the afternoon. Take care. If you want anything while I'm out here let me know.

Thanks again everybody for the congrats.. It was worth it, all the hard work.. However, I havent driven the car yet.. IM having a hell of a time finding a passenger side axle for this car.. I had 97 Grand am GT axle..... didnt work.. I had a 99 cavy 4spd axle.......didnt work.. The other 99 cavy axle I had.....didnt work because it was the one for the drivers side that had a female end, I need the one where both ends of the axle have the male end....
Anybody have one laying around? lol

Thanks.

Well thats awesome that it's finally in. How long did it take you guys to bolt all the accessories back on before you put it in? Does it run yet?



Blew it up, build numbers coming soon

The only accessories I didnt bolt on before the engine went in was the header, and Ho mani and other miscellanous things.. I had all the hoses on in the engine bay before the engine went in..

Yup, that car runs.. No check engine lights, it sounds meaannn man.. The only issue is that it seems to want to die after about a minute of running.. Not sure what thats about. I have irratic idle as well.. How do I fix that? I have the 2.3 TB and sensors.
