We dropped my 20B in last night... finally. I'm pretty pleased with how it went in.. the K2RD mounts really saved us some fabrication time and headache. Here are a couple of shots of the engine installed:







The car is in the body shop from today until Friday getting the clear coat and a big ol dent fixed (someone through a pumpkin at my car a year ago ) I really wanted to have the car driveable by then, but the weather this weekend just didnt' cooperate. Now I have some down time... hmmm, need to order more AN fittings

 

Looking sweet!

 

Damm looking good.

 

i like that engine in the black engine room, its really sweet

mike

 

Yeah man! congrats looks good and very clean unlike some swaps I have seen done where they half-assed it.

 

Very sweet but while its in the body shop have them nivert the colors and make the engine bay red and the body black


just kidding

 

Nice. I wish the bay was red though. Now it looks like you had a black car and didn't have the money to repaint the bay.

 

I actually like it also, I am currently prepping my underhood for a black spray on a white car Buying a sanblaster today to finish off the rest of the BS crud. The black paint is good cause it matches and exterior color. I was even thinking of doing a crazy graphic under my hood.

 

See, I had everything pulled out, and I had a few rust and acid spots on the frame... and I am VERY seriously thinking about a color change next year... just kind of preparing for that. I'll most likely go with Chrysler Patriot Blue or Mazda 99 Spec blue (CBM, or Competiton Blue Mica?) if I can get my hands on it.

This was also my first attempt at painting anything, and I didn't want to hassle with color matching the red, so black was a good choice. It shows off the parts that I want to be seen fairly nicely

Crazy graphic under the hood, I was thinking the same thing... we're make a carbon fiber hood for this car with a reverse cowl up front and a standard 3" cowl up by the windshield and a couple of head louvers behind the headlights... I'll be putting something under there, probably a big old air prushed rotor or something Nah, thats gay.

 

i dunno about a blue fc....
the color code is 20p btw
