Sorry Vin.....you're way too short. In more ways than one.

Another minor update:

Re-purposed an FC hatch seal for a trunk seal. Works perfect.
Swapped in one of Charles Hitachi carbs he rebuilt. Holy shit what a difference! He is rebuilding my carb now, will swap it back this weekend.
JK found the upper section of my fan shroud, and I found the lower. Re-installed with the stock clutched fan. Temps never go over 180. Stupid piddly e-fan.

Also, forgot that my fuel tank sending unit seal isn't sealing too well. Found one for an FB that looks identical. Ordered from Mazda. Hope it gets here before the weekend.

This weekend we're cutting off the cat, installing the Tokico's in the rear and adjusting the front suspension. Then its just a matter of attempting to make it prettier.

Probably. Still have to do some 'pretty' work. Jeff said he'd help with that, and he's pretty damn good at polishing turds.
