Awesome! Good feeling, yes?! Every time you drive it, just think how much money you saved in labor.
Well done.

Haha thanks! it does feel good to be done.

Honestly though, I don't think I would do it again knowing what I do now. It was a seriously hard project. Not really technically hard, but every little thing seems designed to torture you on the way. And just for context, I put a small block chevy into a datsun... Not as hard.

The clutch feels so different now, super light like a honda civic or something.
