Long jurney ahead, but we are making progress.

Looks like a tight fit. Plus you could run the intercooler through the factory intake hole

Nice nice, how did everything fit with the power steering? Might be interested in some engine mounts once you geti them done. Looks like I have to get rid of my bre engine, since I have no one to tune it. At least there are a ton of piston tuners here.

Looks sick man. May I ask what is up w the 4 port? :)

angeljoelv 01-08-2014 09:53 PM

the 4 port Motor is low on compression. Im going to rebuild it and maybe sell it later.

yokohamaboi 01-08-2014 10:30 PM

awesome! Any issues with firewall clearance?

angeljoelv 01-09-2014 08:19 AM

Not at all. The crossmember and steering rack is an other story

did you have to relocate it? or oil pan is hitting?

angeljoelv 01-10-2014 05:56 PM

We used a steering rack from another car. We had the steering pump with the motor so we didnt have to worry about that. I will let u know once the car is on the road if it works good.

what kind of numbers are you going for with this project?

DMaverickRX8 01-12-2014 07:36 PM

Mad skills I'm jealous

angeljoelv 01-12-2014 07:49 PM

4-500 whp range.

angeljoelv 01-12-2014 08:13 PM

Once everything is in place, we are taking it apart and making some cosmetic adjusments. All fab work on this project (engine, tranny and rear end mounts and braces) was done by RAW. Rich Auto Works. So we can't thank him enough for all his amazing work. Its still a long road ahead for us here at the shop but i think at the end it will all be worth it.

9krpmrx8 01-12-2014 08:27 PM

Nice work. Get it right, get it tight.

AlShinka 01-16-2014 11:25 AM

We originally were staying twins but at some point after we started the swap desided on going single. So it changes a little the original plan but thats how things go.
