KS The Rise of the GSL-SE

I have been the proud owner of a 1985 GSL-SE 13b engine for some time now and for about a year it hasn't been running... This is my attempt to remedy my lost love.

Pics will be included later on.

I may of been a bit ambitious when i tried to do the s4 intake manifold swap about 8 months ago and it still isn't finished...

What i have done.
-Removed A/C
-Removed Oil metering pump
-Removed Cruise control
-New back tires
-New rotors and brake pads
-Replaced the rear caliper
-Rewrapped the engine bay wiring harness.
-Purchased RB header, muffler and presilencer (They aren't on the car yet though)

Problems

-Coolant level sensor is disconnected from the wire (I tried to sauter it back on but i ended up just melting plastic over the hole)

-Getting my act together to either finish the s4 manifold swap or go back to the stock setup.


What i want to do

-Get this car running to be my daily

This is a random wire that is sticking out of the fusible links and i have no idea where it goes.




Coolant level sensor is not connected...


Spot the missing item in the picture...


This is a crack in my front frame... is it that bad or what.
