Tossed some parts on today to see how it is all looking. (Old oil pan is still on in these pics, a different/painted one is going on it):


















20 years of oil changes removed from inside the pan!








20 years of New England winters, sand, salt and oil removed from the outside:







Some primer on the outside of it until we find time to setup an oil return line and paint it the final color







Some paint added to the manifold to stick with the theme















Thats all for today. Did a lot that wasnt pictured or worth talking about.

So to start today, this beast is finally getting out of the shop (for now) so we can finish my shit.

Caged foxbody, built 302 and vortec blown:






Replacing of shot valve seals getting started. Once these are done, the ARPs get put in and the head goes on. Should be smooth sailing for a bit until we swap the harness and the shop gets started running all the lines and piping:





Motor in its current state. Waiting for an oil pickup gasket and a bung to be welded on/paint shot on the pan and the bottom end is done:

But how does 6x60lb injectors, blow through maf and open source tuning sound, with 1000cc injector support on the way as well as the ability to swap between 4 different tunes on the go:

Sorry to resurrect the dead thread but what happened to this build. I was wondering how tuning went with the WAR Chip...
