hehe, i knew you couldnt help yourself, even with the little kidlette on the way ;) :D

Did ya know that Recaro makes child seats :thumbsup:

Cool, we have the Simpson car seat, but I didn't know about the Recaro.

car
 

Glad to see that you started again. You are my hero. Every time I see that motor it takes me back to when I was 15 or 16 and I think hotrod did an article on it. There was carb on it, but the block was yellow with all that chrome. I have never wanted something so bad in my life. I ordered the litature on it and was broken hearted...$3500 for the kit. I believe the year was 1981. I wanted to put it in my 78 vette, but I had only paid $8000 for a 3 year old car used with 22,000 miles.

Thanks for living my dream. I get a ride next year on the power tour. Maybe we can switch cars for a leg of the trip.

Turbo whine
 

Nothing like a good fine whiiiiine, Scott. Looks great. Ed

Great job, Scott! I really like how you've used hard-lines for the oil and even vac. lines! I was considering that change for mine and your example really helps the case.

How do you plan running your downpipes around the clutch linkage? That was an issue with mine and arranging the turbos that way. I'm interested in seeing what you come up with.

Also, what kind of oiling are you using? That looks like a pretty deep pan and a passenger-side oil filter or something. Looks crazy and cool! I can't wait until you can give us some driving impressions!

Thanks! :)

Downpipes are a big concern, but my plans include a front steer rack setup and a hydraulic TO. The Dart block doesn't have a provision for an oil filter since the rails are spread .800", so I have to run a remote oil filter. It's still going to be tight with the master cylinder.

Right on. I knew something looked fishy with that block and oiling!

My plan, with that arrangment, was to actually make the Z-linkage into an H-linkage. I was going to use the same pivot points but engineer the center section to jog around the down-pipe. I decided to go with the downpipe down by the engine mounts instead, but that completely vetos power steering or any low-mount accessories. I was real interested in how you were going to work that all out.

The engine looks awesome an you're going to love the power, fo' sho' (see my post in "Updates.. Driving Impressions Pt. Deaux)
