Careful with the pressure washer, it can be pretty harsh on 23 year old wiring and connectors. Be sure to post a good before and after shot! I want to pull my engine JUST to do this same thing!

Nice work. I hope you have better luck getting those oil cooler lines off the oil cooler than I did. I had to cut them off, heat them up in a vise. Expensive too. Be sure to attach the new lines to the motor before installing it. Major bitch to get them on with the motor in the car.

Engine bay is pretty clean already. Should be real nice when you're done.

What are the big plans???

Glad you got the engine out Seb.

You have so much to do, you won't have time to drive the car this summer

What are you plans with your car, do you plan to track it?

Hey Seb! Why don't you come to Rennsport event with us? At least, come meet us there! The dates are on our website. Bob will give you a ride

I am really looking forward to see this car in person, with all those upgrades, it is going to be nice. Did you already bought all the parts?

I just bought a uego AFR gauge yesterday and an EGT gauge too! I have the the boost gauge now temporarely installed on the turn signal lever hhmm hmmm, because the cage is currently being built. Photos to come in 10 days or so...

PM sent for the Jim Russell courses...
