finally making progress

its been two years since i blew a water seal. i first just wanted to rebuild the motor and get the car back on the road asap. but i just could not stop upgrading we all have our own vice my just happens to be the seven. i have posted pictures of the build on the single turbo seciton, but i have put a lot of time and money into the car. so i wanted to show it off a bit more. so here is a few pictures of the motor in the car.

also the motor is NOT pink. it is a dark purple like hkss' purple and samco hoses. for some reason the flash from the camera makes the purple look pink.

I'm not crazy about the iron color, but the rest of it looks very nice. Good luck on getting it back on the road!

So it's been two years since the car has been running? That's a lot of scope creep.

Anyway, nice work, it's really impressive. It's a pity the wide outdoor world is going to get that bay dirty.
