Lots of work left to go. Just sat the engine in and spot welded a few things up. I weld like **** but it will all be fixed once I pull the engine back out and have room to weld.

That was the old 2.0 engine. Put a turbo on the engine for ***** and giggles. Shop that built the engine was worthless. So that engine is gone and now its finally time for a rotary. The truck is on airbags. Still working on installing the 4link and notch in the rear.

Those Toyo Kogyo 2 litres love to blow head gaskets- the problem is the web of metal between cylinders 2-3 is too narrow to provide enough sealing surface for the head gasket. Don't get it hot and keep plenty of antifreeze in it so you don't get electrolysis.
