So I'll be doing final assembly on the motor this weekend but wanted to post pics of the valve cover. I will be making and selling full dress up kits containing all stainless allen bolts except the center 3 on the valve cover(Can't find stainless shoulder bolts in that size). I'll post pics of the entire engine after its assembled. Kits will include bolts for the valve cover, upper and lower front covers, water pump, oil filter adapter, and oil pan. Ill have a price up for the kits after I get the engine assembled.

Anyway here are 2 pics to tide you over. Sorry for the ****ty quality, the only camer I have is my iPhone.





I also removed my battery tray. I know I will have to drill a hole through the area but I'm planning on removing a large section and welding in some stronger/thicker steel. I don't like that light pressure can bend the whole plate....



Here is all that is left......

 

I took some quick shots of the engine tonight with the new bolts in. Every bolt, save the 3 center ones in the valve cover, is high quality stainless steel and comes with stainless washers as well. I checked it and the price that I can sell the FULL kit (Valve Cover, Upper/Lower Covers, Oil Pan, Oil Filter, Water Pump) is $105.00 plus shipping. All the bolts are stainless steel and the Valve Cover bolts are by far the most expensive being precision shoulder bolts. There are over 50 bolts in the kit plus matching washers.

Anyway here are some ****ty pics of the engine. I'll get better ones tomorrow in the light.

 

New wing project for the car. Mounting a Mitsu 3000GT wing on the tail. Looks tiny as **** on the fat DSM, looks big but clean on the S13. I need to do a few minor alterations to get it to fit but it should go on fine and I personally like the look. Just to note, the LED light is removed for the time being so that I don't have to deal with the wires as I try to fit the thing in place. I will install it after the stand-off/adapters are finished.











Also.....

TURBO TIME!!!!

 

WOW! I forgot you even still had this car! Slow, but steady progress! Keep it goin bro!

 

Bought the car during my sophmore year in college, I graduated in May and finally have money to spend on this thing. Right now its all planning and I am slightly pre-occupied with the vert. Check out my other thread to see that headache.
