well ive been meaning to post up all my parts and car picts as the project progresses but i just havnt had time to put any thing neat togther so ill just link up my imagestation page.

its alot of pre blow up pics, some of a supra and the 7m in it , a ca motor that i swaped for a member here that went really really bad, my beater, and of course the new SS autochrome manifold.

i still have a few pictures to add . like of the turbo and the new engine bay

the manifold is alright but its goin to take some clean up work inside due to it being a mass production peice i think. where runner 2 meets runner 1, there is some pipe extruding down into the runner of 2 that needs ground down , if i can.

im still kinda worried about it cracking some of the welds look suspicious, i had my mom look them over she thinks they are pretty good and that it shoulcnt give me too many problemns, but its been awhile since shes inspected welds so i dont know. maybe ill find some one to xray the thing to make sure its got good penatration and no cracks or fissures.

that Ca thats on the ground was bought from a forum memebr who also is a shop owner , its cost was more then a complete motor set shipped and was also incomplete with no turbo or mani, also missing and rigged various other parts. it took me dissabmling my motor just to get the parts to install it . it cost me more money then i was paid to install it. ill never do that again!
