oh damn! well if I get headstuds decently quick then I might have it mostly done by then. Tonight we're gonna get the front and rear mounts on and then possibly do a little bit of wiring.

Let me know if you need anymore help, and if you figure out where those plugs go! Also, any news/dimensions on that rear bolt?

still have no idea about that bolt I can't even find another bolt thats the same thread pattern. I'll try a couple more off the old engine and see if I can at least get you a thread pattern.

got the front mount in on my lunch break. Didn't work after class cause I was exhausted. Gonna get at it tomorrow night.

rear mount is bolted in head's ready to go on once the headstuds come then I just gotta figure out the timing ****, do a little more wiring and see if I can dig up a stock manifold and dp so I can load up a basemap and drive the car around for 1,000-1,500 to get everything broken in. Then I'll bring it back in fab up the turbo downpipe and tap the oil pan and then I just gotta bolt in all the turbo stuff and retune the car. Plan is to have it done within 5 weeks since I'll know how to weld decently enough by then to make the downpipe.

Still no pics unfortunately cause I keep forgetting to bring my memory card with me, I'll try and remember tomorrow.
