yup yup this shop is really good its a few older guys that just run/ own it.. they are amazing at what they do. last year they won at some e85 convention thing in ohio, breaking the dyno(i hear) but it put out 7XX crank HP N/A.
ordered the tensioner. when it gets here i will look and see what else i need i will need a spring for sure and the keeper/ holder for the spring also. my lsd clutch came today! haha had to put a clutch in my ------- galant i was getting owned in some snow and tore it up bad and the master is leaking too.. damn thing.

got the bottom end and tranny in this weekend! i have started on the wiring now. and cleaning up random ----, cvs are in clutch is bled, i will have to get some pics sometime, i called up hasport but they cant get the corrects bolts that i need for my tranny mount anymore which is bullshit. hopefully have the head back after i buy valves. and i picked up that manual tensioner i just need a couple things to finish that off with.

Is that a custom bent cage?

it was a kit, pretty much just came with the hoop and length of pipe and everything else was fabbed and welded in, and the welded in rear strut bar was my idea.. seats fit nice too. passenger has limited leg room,

i ordered supertech valve springs seems to be the best for the money. they should be here and the head will be goin in next week! just a grind on the valves clean it up and install the springs. i might be picking up an old school crx for 100 buck from some kid that i know! im pretty pumped so i can get some better mileage than my gsx galant! haha
i have a pretty badass fuel setup in mind that i think should work really well too!
here is what i have been up to with this build!
i've got the motor in with the new clutch from LSD



i forgot to take a lot of photos but its nothign huge haha, i have been ordering some random parts to convert to manual tensioner too! i bought the spring bearing and the two bolts from honda, the head is all on there so i can clean up the wiring part of it and i got the starter to click so im pretty happy there after simplifiing the wiring harness A LOT.

and my daily driver decided to take a ---- on me haha



my buddy ryan helping me out with the new clutch and there are the CV's i took out of it
im glad some of my friends are DSM guys they hooked me up with some talon awd cv's
my AWD 5 speed 46g3 galant! awesome dd but only gets like 20mpg
