64 weeks since we began our rebuild.

Our first build ever and learned a lot. A few things we will change over time but for now
https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...099fd654e7.jpg

Car had a 13b pp with Ida carb, prop shaft was knocking on the body, radiator and other parts were held together with zip ties. But we did it.

i like it. :) some pretty good work there. many nice projects within a project (radiator and hard lines, fuel sump, carbon fiber overlays, etc.) - really nice touches. i take it with that pretty stout fuel system you'll be shooting for big power, eh? i'm guessing you went front mount since you've got an Gen II CAS running the ignition?

i await updates.

also, just an aside, what does the South African model Chevy Lumina look like? it was a front-drive car for us.

Not crazy power for now just looking for a reliable 330 kw the wheels. Not sure how this turbo is going to perform but other guys who have tried it made good power at around 15psi so if we get close to that mark at that boost then mission accomplished.
