Picture orgy continues. Day 4 (July 12), it was about 95*F outside, and probably a little worse in my garage (haven't had the wiring for the AC unit installed yet- Priorities, man!

Oil pan drilled and tapped instead of drilled and sealed with a normal pass-through stud (ADC... :disgust: )

You're damn straight no locking pin- The engine isn't even seated in the stand! There wasn't room to install the front header with the pin in, so I had to lift the engine up and bring the black coupler almost half out of the stand. I live life on the edge.

The Tial wastegate vents to the downpipe. I did not install the downpipe to this mock-up.

Oh so the DP goes down in front of the trans and then underneath it back to the exhaust? Shows how much of the ADC kit I'm familiar with.
