A lot and his name is Paul. Pretty sure I mentioned the name of the machinist fabbing up the parts for me at the beginning of the thread, but then reading never really was your strong suit, eh Gimli?

Really looking good. I am with Drooz on the seat that it looks good and I too normally don't like the LTD seats either. Never liked factory pipes either, just used to a 4-1 header all the time also. Either way good luck with your project.

Update: I've decided to ditch the new Garrett T3/T4 turbo and go back to the Rajay. Even thought the motor is a monster at 1428cc, the Garrett is too big for the intended use. The smaller Rajay will spool up faster and reduce lag time, and will make more than enough boost for me. The Rajay that came with it needs a rebuild, and in the course of gathering pieces for that, I managed to land an entire fully functioning Rajay system with nitrous!!!! :evil:

Also on the docket is to upgrade some of the engine components, so I obtained an 83/84 GPZ1100 trans and had billet gears added and backcut work done. Should be plenty beefy now. Also got a MkII crank that will be worked over by Falicon soon. That should do me for the motor upgrades. I'm targeting a completion date of May. In the mean time, here's a little pic.
