Good luck.. Do you think you understand what all the parts do? thats the most important thing. If you know what function everything has then you can figure just about anything out.

double check EVERYTHING before you start the car for the first time when its done. especially hoses. Use teflon tape on all threaded liquid connections.

make sure you take out your plug wires off your distributor and crank it over a bunch of times to get oil to the turbo.
dont want to destroy that turbo the first day right?
