    Thanks gents, wasn't too sure what feedback I would get. Seems a lot of people jump shit for putting a GM motor in these cars. I'm just looking for that reliable 400whp vs my old high strung m20 running 18psi just waiting for the headgasket to let loose.

    j/k, man, I just happened to see this thread come up in a search and created an account just to come in here and give you grief. That engine totally suits your car, I want to see a vid when you start it up!

      Rob! Just finished almost all the wiring yesterday. I'll have to post up some pics it turned out pretty clean.

                I should really pay someone to get mine running.

                This is badass.

                    Time is my bottleneck right now. My car is plumbing and wiring away from running.

                    It would be fun to get some people together - grill out drink beers and get it running though.

                      Hell Yeah! I've still got my wiring diagrams that I made and also I made my own fuse block with relays...wiring is simple as depicting unneeded shit from PCM and stripping it. Then re wrap the whole harness with braided loom.

                          Mine came with an aftermarket wiring harness so its all really easy. Couldn't be harder than the M62 swap, that was a wiring nightmare because of the lack of info.

                              Want to do some stainless welding for me this fall/winter?

                                      I've got maybe 3" clearance right under the collectors. Only thing left is coolant hoses which should be here tomorrow.

                                        Loving the updates!

                                        I really just need a 3 inch piece fabricated to go underneath the rear subframe, a few exhaust hangers, and to recirculate my wastegate. The exhaust is on the car and functioning / drivable right now, just not complete
