I like the new gauges a lot, how hard are they to wire up?

very simple...the water temp and oil pressure are bothe mechanical guages so the only wires on those are the lights...which i ted in with the tach, which leaves me with one wired once i pu them in the truck...for the tach signal...very easy.

got the brakes plumbed in finally...took pictures but everyone knows what brake lines look like. And i forgot the camera at the shop. Also took out the fuel tank, pressure washed the engine bay, and tried some new wheels to see what they would look like. three months till the first drift event so im looking forward to getting everything done so i can test it out before then.

I wish we had local organized events. Let me rephraze that. Local "legal " events. I deleted facebook. This thread needs more pictures anyway.

I have not seen the motor as of the last one did you get a shorty water pump to make more room looks like the motor is pretty far ahead.

its just a stock short pump. i decided it was better to have the motor further ahead than spend the time to cut the firewall and tranny tunnel.

And the headers came in today...never wrapped headers before and had no idea that there was gonna be fiberglass in the wrap...FRIGGIN JOY!!! Didnt really need the wrap but they had a little rust on them so this was cheaper than getting em coated...was quoted 150 bucks a piece for that...so yeh...this was better.
