Damn, the engine compartment looks so roomy. Between the engine, radiator, and IC - there's still plenty of space.

the engine bay is just asking for a tripple!!

there is about a inch between the fan and water pump pulley, the rad is about a inch further back than stock for more cooler room, everything fits nice!! the car is all wired up as well, no wires in my engine bay!!

When i get some till ill do that, things are rushed at the moment to get the car regoed so i can drive the bloody thing!! LOL

whats your user name on AUSROTARY??

PVC, the colour is GM tiger gold, but mixed slightly wrong so it is a little darker.

82 Street racer

the turbo is a garrett T66 .70 front cover, 1.32 p trim rear, the wastegate is under the radiator hose, you can just see the top of it if you look closley.
