Wow. I just read and my heart is breaking. And here all along I thought you had real Enkies like me, but they're just ARE's...

Back on topic. Are saying that with an rx-4 bell housing on a t2 tranny can you use a NA flywheel, clutch, and starter, or is it just the clutch? Cause I have a light weight flywheel and aftermarket clutch on my car and that's why I haven't swapped to the t2 tranny sitting my my garage. I didn't want to have to spend the money getting a new Flywheel, clutch, and starter.

RX-4 top mount bell housing. You can use the T2 tranny somewhat with the NA clutch setup and flywheel. However, you will need to get a custom driveshaft. You also need to shorten the tail shaft housing cause those trannys stick back farther. However, in regards to the clutch setup, you can keep the pressure plate but not the clutch disc, you will need a custom disc made as well which can be done at Clutchmaster's they know about it. I can give you the specs if you want.

In regards to the wheels, I love how they look, Enkie or not still pimpin!!

At this time I'm still collecting parts and paying for the rebuilt. As stated before I had picked up a slightly blown S5 TII core motor and I've doing a full 2MM race apex seals rebuild on it, as well as a monster street port. The plan is to finish up the motor, re-do the fuel setup with an MSD fuel pump and Mallory 4309 FPR, then run NA for a little to break in the motor. I recently purchased the 4309 and already am going to be getting the MSD fuel pump soon as well.

Once that's done and done, the last initial steps will just be to buy the turbo, figure out my FMIC setup, and get things going. Ideally I plan to be done by this summer so we'll see. Hoping to finish paying off the rebuild parts for the motor and getting that done ASAP.

Haven't installed the Mallory 4309 FPR and the MSD fuel pump yet -- waiting for turbo setup. Installing an MSD6A box and my new aluminum racing radiator with custom fan/shroud setup this week. Also throwing in an Optima Red Top battery with new terminals as well.

Right now I plan to finish the rebuilding and throw in the motor NA for a bit with the large street port. Also changing out my exhaust setup as well. Turbo will be added on shortly after. Just been lagging on the rebuild because of bills, etc. More pics to come next week!

Sounds good. Yea, I think we all know where you are coming from with being busy, and bills, etc. Glad to hear you are able to continue this project though, it will be awesome once complete! Keep us posted-

Nice setup as well, I like the shade of blue on your car.

A question for both of you though. Why the side draft setup over say, a Holley 4 barrel, or alternative carb. setup?

Thanks-

that holley fpr wont work well for boost, there no way to raise the fuel pressure with boost=lean out and blow up.
