Got back after it this past week/weekend and got a few things accomplished (mostly yesterday).
Tail lights Installed:
I have a C6 PWM fan controller, and wanted to find a good place for it that was out of the way. Core support went back on to see if the spot i wanted will work.
Lots of space!
Made me nervous drilling and putting nutserts in the beautiful shroud, but it needed to be done!
Next up was finishing the turbo drains and hooking up the power steering lines.
Hard to tell but the turbo drains are in place here, -10 90deg to -10 PTFE to the pan, and a 120deg fitting into the pan. That area is relatively flat but does have a slight uphil right at the end (passenger side mostly, to clear the starter).
Power steering lines were a PITA. To get them tight on the rack, I had to pull the rack hardlines to have access. They're done and hardlines are back in place.
Decided to tackle one of the jobs I was least looking forward to...Drilling the firewall for the ac bulkhead. I had to pull the AC back out and the glove box to have access to put these in place.
Since the AC was out, I mounted my bulkhead for the power cable from the top. Kept me from having to remove passenger downpipe to have access to drill it.
