I cant wait till I get this car to garage so I can pull the motor and start stripping the engine ba.y. That's going to be the fun part. Thanks for the comments guys.

Been busy the last few weeks so no real updates should be getting back to it within the next few weeks. Id really like to pull the motor and start the engine bay process before the end of December.

Most certainly is a dsm. I just finished a full motor/tranny build on it. As far as the chrome goes I'm waiting to hear back on someone interested in them. Until I know whats going on the plan is to keep them chrome as it will be easier to sell. Once they are sandblasted they will lose there appeal to some people.

Here some of the pics of the dsm:







Quick Video of the finished car:

Technically my car is a gte. All i need it a tt head and the swap would be done. Right now it has a fully rebuilt gte bottom end with arp rod bolts and arp headstuds with a tt headgasket and acl bearings but it has a ge head sitting on it.
