Just thought I'd share. Still a bit more to do, but looks alright so far.

Thanks for the comments fellas.

To answer questions:

I high-temp ceramic coated the LIM, water pump and the waterpump housing. Used some Dupont Engine Paint w/ceramic, so I didn't REALLY ceramic coat them, but it holds up pretty damn good. Rated at 1200 degree protection and is oil and fuel proof.

I was originally going non-seq with the Bi-state 400+ twins. I've since changed my mind and am going TO4-S.

The motor is a rebuild with Mazda 2mm seals and a streetport.

I still have to finish up a few things... Need to put the fuel system on, put on the alternator pully, tap the filler neck for my temp gauge.. Couple little things.

Yeah... I have a polished oil cap, just didn't put it on LOL

Ummm... are those the old OMP lines?

And you're missing a MAJOR amount of twisted rubber and crappy plastic under that UIM, I hope you know that!!! Probably won't run as well as MY car with all that stuff still IN there...


BWAHAHAHAHA! Couldn't contain myself. Looks BEAUTIFUL!!!!!

Haha! Thanks for the compliment. Yes they are the original OMP lines. I'm replacing them. This is just a test fit (Actually I was anxious to show off!!) Still have to bolt on the fuel rails, regulator gauge and lines and a few other loose ends.
