Everything is looking great. Crying shame not to ceramic coat that beauty of an exhaust manifold.

I spy Bud Light Lime, one of my favorites when wrenching on rotaries

That sounds great. Love it, very nice. You didn't miss anything yesterday on the dyno as it didn't happen for me. We spotted a fuel leak out of the tank in the back so shut it down before any runs. Better safe than sorry and will try again in a week or so.

our friend who ceramic coats/powder coats our stuff went on vacation :/ i'm sure i'll get bored one day and take everything apart.. i wrapped it with some header wrap for now.

the only problem with the bud light limes is that they go down so easy that before you know it you already had a 12 pack lol

Beautiful car, very nice for sure. I think you're on track with the acceptable transmission solutions. Carlos Lopez did a conversion piece for the T56 if you want to contact him about that.

you can buy a really nice high amperage billet alternator from summit racing.. i think you wouldn't want to throw some nasty dodge chunk of metal into all that nice engine stuff

Or you can get a direct fit 200+ AMP unit from:

http://www.excessiveamperage.com/

Nathan, the owner did a great job on mine. I wanted 110 amps at idle which is something none of the Summit Racing units (or other sites) can do so Nathan hand built mine. It puts out 115 amps at idle and 200 amps at above 3,000 RPMs. Can also spin up to 20,000 RPMs (9,000 car RPMs X 2 because of the pulley size = 18,000 alt RPMs). Not cheap though ($400) but it has finally solved my low voltage at idle issues on the car.

please more details
i was on the highway and a yellow GT2 pulled right next to me and kept taunting me so i decided to see what the 200k Porsche was all about, i down shifted into 3rd i brake boosted he honk 3 times and we took off.. as soon as i let go of the break pedal i jumped about a half a car on him and starting walking away from him by the end of 4th gear i had about 6-7 cars on him i power shifted into 5th and i hit the rev limiter and the car wouldn't move and it felt like it was on nautral so i dropped into 4th and the car was fine so i decided to get off of the next exit to check my car out by that time the Porsche caught up to me and gave me thumbs up and i went home with a smile on my face

so you got all your voltage problems fixed? $400 for a ALT is a lot of moola :/
