Ahhhhhhh, I remember this build from post 29 on... I even see one of my welds

You guys have no idea how quick this car is.... it rearranged my internal organs on acceleration. The torque just doesn't stop.... it's odd.... it like not a rotary

Glad you're loving the dash Glenn.... sorry you had to see it

The pan is a really nice piece. It just didn't want to clear my crank even though I was told it would. There's nothing like hustling your ass off to swap the pan and build -10 oil lines so you can get home by midnight, and firing it up to hear thud thud thud. Had to take it back apart the next day, bang the pan out to clear my #1 rod, and all was well.

Wait till you ride in it when you come out. If you thought it was fast before...

The dash is awesome! I just need to get my oil temp sensor hooked up to it and everything will be complete!
