* in my best joe dirt voice*daaaang...

that is quite the mess. Did you relocate your power steering resevoir to the other side of the engine bay?

it looks like most of your probelms seem to be that things arent bolted down to their locations, so it makes it look bad (that and your turbo isnt on)

i need tires

ok first that needs to happen is u need to move p/s to the other side... and bolt up ur p/s pump...

mainly just clean up the engine bay... u have SO much going on i can see why ur ready to be done with it thats what happened with my car hehe now its all gone!

also right under the battery there is a HUGE rust spot i would cut that out and try to weld something in there so u dont have to worry about the rust traveling further

but yea clean up the engine!

ya i moved the ps resevoir to the right side atleast i think it is.... i still have to do my power steering lines which i shoulda done before i put my engine in. i wish i had another 240 to just look at kinda so id know where everything goes cuz stuffs just everywhere....and ya the turbo isnt on yet cuz its a the the shop right now b/c it came off a honda and im taking off the exhaust side so i can turn the front of the turbo in the right direction and the bolts that i needa take out to turn it r deff. seized up and i really dont wanna mess w/it but once i get that done im gonna mount it and get started having my elbow to my down pipe made..... ne ways if ne ones got some ideas or something to say feel free
