You going to run a new wiring harness or??
If more power is better. Then too much is just enough.
Why do it once when you can do it thrice?

I'll never show...muuuuhahahahaha.

Seriously though T. Not much exciting pics to show. All the bits are blasted and painted (gas tank, grilles, glove box, hood and decklid springs and hinges) Pan seal is now on and the shell is bolted down minus four bolts. Going in tonight to do some more work......Soooooo close dood. I can taste it!  ;)

I was a little worried welding up the holes on your gas tank though......anyone tell me a safe way to do this.......I just did it....Good Lord hates a coward.  :unsure:

When I welded the 3/8\" bungs on mine, I took it to a local radiator/gas tank shop and had them flush it and prep it for welding.  They did it for free for me as long as I would take it back to get lined when I was done, which I did, still only cost $30!!!

No worries at all..... and no leaks :D

Yup, it's mine.... Thanks Hansk.  It's been a long project full of pitfalls, but I got it up and running (finally) last year.  Can't wait till I get my trans this year and take it to the track.

Thanks again,

The paint looks even better than the pictures.  Talk about a mirror finish...I parked it out front for a short time today and people I didn't know were stopping and commenting on it....Jason certainly did a fantastic job!  Can't wait to get going on the rest $$$$$$ Gulp! :D  :D
