Hey Doc!!! Great!,  to see you are still at it!!! I really like this project!!

Thank you John, working on putting the engine together today. Painted it last night and dropped it but oh well. Not gonna see much of it anyway... Have turbos on the way from Canada, thanks Rick!!! Body is at home feeling a bit gassy today, primer is a bit tacky so I left it to gas out a bit more....

Glad you found the turbos you needed.Looking forward to updates.

I keep having to sand and fill... LOL, went to shoot the last coat of primer on it the other day and the body filler split. Found out the resin was thin in one are so I had to back it up and fill it again.. Engine is looking pretty god so far though!!!
