Project Update:

Today, we got the clutch on and ran the all the lines. Finally brought the engine home from BNR...Bryan did a great job on everything. Anthony hooked up my wiring harness in like 8 seconds (thanks) We gutted the cats, which was a BITCH!...then drank a lot of beer. tomorrow, it finally goes in. I cant wait to drive it.

Tonight I got to drive Anthony's (Felix Wankel) car with the exact same clutch as mine, also with no power steering and 14 lbs of boost....WOW! The clutch felt great, and to everyone who said they didnt like the removed steering, GIMME A BREAK! Response was great! 14 psi wasnt too bad either, really pulled hard....REAL hard!


Well thats the latest...more tomorrow!
