Thanks I appreciate the input. I have brand rotors that Il be using. They have the electomagnetic coating on them for rust prevention. I'm not a fan of drilled and slotted slotted rotors and I wanted a simple and clean look. Couldn't find a slotted set that I really liked. So I went with centrics
I have to wait for the install, I don't think my wheels will clear the brakes. I'm not looking into running spacers either. So they might have to wait till I get the permanent wheels.
IL be going with sve track setup, 17" skinnies in the fronts and wide 15" rears. I'm gloss black. IL be building this car right! Can't wait til I swap in the gte.

Replaced the power steering fluid using the remove, refill, cycle, repeat method.
I used a 100ml syringe to pull the dirty fluid out of the reservoir, dumped that fluid into a old 2L water bottle.
Filled the syringe with new dexron atf fluid and put it into the reservoir.
Replaced the cap, then turned the car on, twisted the wheel R to L (end stop to end stop) three times per side.
Repeated the process until until the fluid I removed from the reservoir was light red like the new stuff (4 times).
No more squealing when idling

Thank you for your reply, I may have to relocate my fuse box also, but as far as oil stock oil mount bracket mine clears it with no issues, great heads up on the cross threading!!, but since I havent installed the engine in the sc yet, I have no clue if it would clear brake master.
I do like the craftsmanship of the manifold myself, looks like itbs inside of it!!
Rock on!!

Clears brake master cyl just fine!
Huh. Mine wouldn't clear the factory oil cooler/warmer. Had too many hoses running underneath along wth the harness. With the oil filter relocated down, it clears beautifully.

pierced 4 holes in the firewall to install the clutch pedal assembly and clutch master cylinder. 3 were for the clutch master cylinder and 1 for the lower mounting point, which only required a nut, bolt and washer. installed the manual brake pedal too
