Looks good . When will your engine be ready?
it shouldnt be too long. the heads and the crank are going to be the hold up though. we're going to try and get tony to cut me some 74cc heads to drop the compression down just a little more. it will save me about 500 bucks vs a custom piston.

more updated pics. i would call the trunk just about done. i plan on making an aluminum "cover" for the trunk latch hole and i need to remount the new back piece. other than that, its ready for material.

a few people have asked about the back cuts that i used to lighten the panels. if i wouldnt have put the detail in the panels, i could have gone with a thin piece and not needed a back cut. id also wait until done mounting before doing the cut if i did them again.
