Got this one at lowes, it was on clearance because it was missing a few things, but I was able to put everything together for a pretty decent price. For this record this is a 2500psi gas unit. -Doc -------------------- -Dr Tweak, 6GC's resident engine swap wiring expert extraordinaire Click here to see my swaps drtweak@phoenixtuning.com |

Friday is the day, were going to call it an early week so we can work on Project Stuart Little. I still have the interior to finish (and clean), the wiring to convert, engine accessories to install. We got the turbo, turbo manifold, clutch, and down pipe, as well as all of the rest of the parts are in:) Everyone is buzzing about body mods and what other upgrades to add. which makes it even more fun for us to see it come together.

Well, unfortunately Mouse had to move back to Alaska due to some family issues that came up, so he is no longer with us (although you will likely still see him posting from time to time under the username "Mouse"). So the Stuart Little project is mine now, and I DO plan on getting everything together shortly, so stay tuned for some exciting updates -Doc -------------------- -Dr Tweak, 6GC's resident engine swap wiring expert extraordinaire Click here to see my swaps drtweak@phoenixtuning.com |
