Default Skinny E Turbo Progess Pics 56k Maybe

Well skinny E is unable to use the internet at this moment, and since i have the pictures on my camera. I guess I'll be the one to post his progress pictures. We are slowly making progress its been 6 days I beleive and still now done, but that's because we are taking our time and only working a few hours a day.

Thats pretty much what we got done, besides most of the tear down. We got the DSM mani to fit the F block
the oil pan is off and ready to be tapped. A/C is out. Block is grinded down to fit the turbo.
We still got alot to do more pics to come

that panel actually is just bolted on. take out the bolts drill a hole in the middle so it fits in between brackets and it fit perfectly. then he can leave it on when hes around town, no one will no its there and shut off the battery, unbolt the panel at the track and make it pass the safety check

there is a battery box in the trunk. we have that covered. the only reason its taking so long is because both of us work at night so we usually work on it like 2 hours get some stuff done and then go to work. and we didnt work on it at all saturday or sunday
