Yes, I have an 82 N/a box that needs some new seals, before I swap it out. However the T5, shifts well (without warm up period), so will be put on the back burner for the time being.

I pulled...

Hi Madkaw,
Yes, I am running MS2.
The shop I tookthe car to get wired and tuned say the T5 is heavy (which it is), and a pain to rebuild. Rear main seal is also leaking ): See how we go next week...

- More tuning needed
-BMC is leaking, so will have to...

Awesome Rich! I know the Z problem well.... No fix as yet.

Fluids filled! New hood release and cable, battery tray, stalks, lots of little things done today. Awaits a lift to the shop.

Everything is back together again, hood, radiator, front bumper, valance, etc. Tires are too big (225s), :cry: but will fix later. Taking to a shop soon to have tuning, exhaust welded, and wiring...

Lol, no driving yet but she is pretty much complete. Bled brakes and clutch, a little wiring and cleaning up done today. First time off the jackstands in a year or so. Back end is a little high but...

Installed new clutch slave cylinder, electric radiator fans are too small,
Working through the bends.

First attempt to start made today!!! Fuel is good, No Spark however. :cry:
More investigation needed...

Thanks, I couldn't take the credit for it though. Got some Tokicos for the rear courtesy of Hybridz. Went ahead and installed them today.
Still need some filters, clamps, hoses, etc. Maybe tomorrow...

Thanks Euro, made a little more progress today. Heat has been crazy lately. Intercooler was mounted using the horn holes, fuel pump wiring is already in place from stock harness? I have a collection...
