Built the "DSE" cribs. Did 16x16 and stacked 8. Carpet on bottom to protect my nice floors.

Will your doing an incredible job! It must be nerve racking working around a freshly painted car.

Sadly the paint job wasn't great to begin with. Long story that I'm trying to forget. It's got a few nicks on the way. I'll have it touched up once complete.

A full paint job I'm sure is in this cars future. I plan to beat on the car a bit first.

Very nice turbo setup

Great looking ride man. I have been watching this one on Instagram as well.

I may have overlooked it but how much boost and what kind of power levels you going for?

Thanks. M2K did a hell of a job on it.

Ah excellent.

Power. We'll see what it takes but I figure on kill 20+psi and 11-1200.

Pump gas should be around 15 and 1000.

I got a little done and car is "progressing" as best it can. Decided to say screw it and get the firewall finished so some deconstruction was involved.

How the car started out. As you can see firewall above brake reservoirs is questionable...

Started the teardown and pulled the turbo kit off completely.

With the turbo kit out of the way, the core support was pulled and the motor/transmission was pulled as a single unit.

Fenders removed and car put back on the ground to be sent to paint shop to have firewall finished/fixed.

Painter already did all the work to the car (since last Sunday). He gave me a deadline of this upcoming Sunday 1/10 to be finished (so i figured a good month there).

Got some parts in for the car like the new latches, etc and got my RFID key setup in.

Wiring is my daunting task next. I have a new DSE dash coming and a racepak and looking at mil spec (deutsch) connector options.

Well...That was faster than expected. Painter had the car 3 days...

Had some help yesterday while swapping oil pans and test fitting in the car before modifying it with turbo drains.

Took some doing solo to get the motor in and NOT touch the firewall...

PLENTY of room in there now!

Motor back out and waiting to be put on a stand so I can get the pan installed properly and do some checks (pushrods) and start the wiring.

Car looks good standing still even without a front end on it (mirrors installed).

Looking Great Will!
You have to be happy about the quick turn around on the firewall.
