all I have to do is tidy a few things up under the car and put in fluids. I'll definately be glad to ditch the 12a trans that I had in it for the fc trans. it's great for acceleration on the street or track,but on the highway it sucks with the se's 4:30 gears. I need to eventually clean up the engine bay,but for now I just want to drive it.

I regretfully have to abandon this car as a my project car,but I will however be taking over the beige se that was supposed to be my sons. I'll be using mine as a parts car and will be selling it or parting it locally. things aren't going well at my work and I can't afford to restore the beige one and work on the red one. I want to thank everyone who has helped,commented,gave me input on this car. hopefully someone can use this thread to help them with their fc engine swap in a gsl se. it's a well worth it swap,I just can't continue with this car. look for updates in the other thread soon. thanks
