While the properties of E85 are fantastic, the fuel stations that carry it are less than generous in the area. Ill pass. On with more pics!

Might as well have taken the oil line to the cooler instead of using that hard line.

I only have one cooler. It's a base. The stock hard lines should be ok. If I blow one up ill take it to a local shop and have it redone with 1500psi hydraulic hose

Also put the PPF, drive shaft and trans brace back under the car. reinstalled the short throw. also installed my custom bracket for the avc-r sensor and solenoid. Ill try to remember to snap a couple pics of it. engine harness is back in as well.

Finally por15'd my fuel tank. im content with the job but I think another can would have made it better. ill run it and see how it goes. if **** starts to float or come off then ill remove it for a fuel cell. It should all run this weekend tho (takes 4 days for the por15 to completely cure)

Really fantastic progress man. I was impressed to see you repaint the entire engine bay. It's something that's often overlooked by many. Brings new life back into the car!!

I am really interested in how you were able to repair the console tabs. My 93 has most of the tabs snapped off the center console, and it would save a bundle it they were repairable.

90+ hours of labor vs 1 hour of rain and a city that doesn't maintain their storm drain system:
