Engine & Tranny installed today!
Yehaw, got the engine and tranny installed today, a few more things to go and I'm all set to fire it up and squeel with delight. I plan on posting pictures but my damn is dead at the moment. Give me about 5 minutes and I'll have some questions/pictures up.

hypntyz has supplied me with about 80% of the parts for this conversion, so I can see why he's anxious. Anyway, I'm headed to the garage now, I'll be back with pictures

Wankel: I tried Yeah, I didn't realize it was a broken stud until the engine was installed, I had thought it was a little guide for the ACV so it sat correcly, I guess I was wrong!

Oh, and yes wankely7, I will be blocking it off. One less vacuum hell to go through! I should have the wiring harness/afm/fan/alternator/radiator/oil cooler lines/hoses hooked up by next wednesday. Hopefully I can get it out of the garage soon!

Another update: Just ordered a RB downpipe from rx7store.net, should be here Monday, got spark plugs, fuel filter, half-shafts so I can finish my turbo rear-end install tonight, got the slave cylinder on, going to put the starter/rear end/driveshaft on tonight and hopefully I can find a hydraulic clutch line locally. Just waiting on my parts to come in the mail before I can finally fire it up!
