Well, Saturday will be 5 weeks since the first day of the project, which makes today 1 month and 2 days. (Started on May 17) The main goal today was to get the K-Member on, get some parts back on then engine, and maybe roll the car out of the garage to clean it up a bit and organize the parts and work area.
Couldnt get the Vortech MAIN bracket on because I was missing the 3 bolts, and didnt want to stop working to go buy them. Also, the enw Steeda springs were SO tight that when we tried to compress them with the jack under the A-arm, the whole car was lifiting....even with me standing on the K-member. ... so couldnt roll the car out. With Jose's AWESOME help and abilitly here is what we DID get done:
K-member bolted up.
Clutch pedal assembly on
ALL the things in the photo attached to the bay.
Several parts put back on the engine
Fuse box mounted in the fender well (right outside where the battery would go)
Brake lines all installed
Doesnt "seem" like too much, but there are always some things that come up to slow you down (missing parts). PLUS...we cleaned all the parts that looked bad and painted some parts that were fugly. All in all the direction is FORWARD, and I am very please and greatful for Jose's help
