It's been awhile but finally have a quick update. Clutch from Dodson had some weird corrosion so had to be sent back out. Thankfully Sam coordinated everything and took care of me but did delay things a little bit with shipping/etc. Clutch is now back and in, motor and trans now together, and manifold and accessories are mostly on! Turbos should be going on next. Hoping to have things ready for this Spring/Summer! Attached some pictures from my visit to shop today, figured you guys would like to take a look at the Iron Man themed manifold! Really does look amazing in person.

Finally got the car back couple days ago! Had some issues with misfires after everything was installed. Mechanic checked for boost leaks, plus/injectors, compression/leakdown and everything is checking out ok. Currently we are hoping it's just some carbon build and on the valves and hoping spraying meth and running the car a bit will clean it up. Motor has been sitting for over a year so hopefully just needs to be run a bit more. Happy to at least have it back and driving again! Thanks again to Sam for helping me getting the car dialed in!

Update: Car was still.misfiring so ended up sending it directly to @SamboTT@ByDesign and World Motorsports to get her right. Looks like that's what I should have done from the beginning! They were able to quickly diagnose the issue (couple install issues) and get the car running again. Can't wait to get her shipped back and get some drives in!

@Drv Saif Plate says IL on it - any limitations in terms of winter use/plans to drive it over the next few months? Dyno chart looks fun, hope you enjoy the hell out of it.
