Here it goes,everybody should now by now that I blew my stock motor like 6 mths ago.I was able to get a 12.51 @109mph out of that previous setup. Pistons 1 & 5 were chipped during the process and now I'll be going with an L32 longblock w/ only 21kmiles on it,and a stg2 turbo cam from stattama, and a 3"downpipe. I was thinking of changing my current setup with a bigger turbo but decided againts it due to my finantial situation.The t62-1 turbo that I have right now is capable of 30lbs of boost and I'm only boosting 16lbs.I started messing with the car today and I dont have any means of stopping untill she is up and running and has returned to her former gloryToday I installed my new zzp radiator and the smaller brakebooster.... and yes my wife dumped me at the shop before I could reach for my camara hopefully I can post pics up as this progress moves along..Rusty if I forgot anything pls help me & fill in.

No sir I haven't done anything to the car,I'm to lazy to go clean her up.The only reason it looks cleaner its because of the hard rain we had on sunday.

The engine bay had already been washed before Brady took the pic but the wires were still everywhere. Here is a pic with most of the wires already relocated. And of course me doing all of the dirty work......Lol Now all we need is the cam so we can put the motor back in the car. Frank you need to go pick up your car and have someone else do the cam install. Tony has a guy that will do it for $275

The tear down of the new L32 has begun. The cam will be in the motor by this weekend and hopefully Brady will have the motor all cleaned up and painted.
