All of the wiring is being cleaned up and finished right now.

A peak of the engine. This pic is a week or so old. I changed the fuel rails and a couple of more minor details.

Even though the exhaust is stainless, I had it coated for cooling and cleaning purposes. It is almost time to fire the engine for the first time.

Outstanding work going into this project. So many nice details!

Measured the backspacing for the front and rear wheels. Got them ordered and on the way. Getting closer everyday.

Front

Rear- The stretched rear quarters really helped the large diameter tires look like they belong.

Killer build thanks for sharing. Gained some ideas for my current build

Greening Auto. They are really nice. The billet work is awesome. I had them powdercoated. Check out their website, they have a few different options. It really cleans up the engine without relocating the coils. My initial plan was to relocate the coils but I just didn't have enough room anywhere.

Great looking build! Nice color choice.

Reworked the stock dipstick that sticks up way too far. I feel this looks better being a few inches lower.

The A/C bulkhead that came with the Concept One system was really nice, but it just wouldn't fit in the tight engine compartment and the A/C lines would never look right. So after searching I found this bulkhead and shortened the lines and welded the fittings back on.

Then had it coated

Hope to have a few more updates soon.

The bulk head came out great.
