Little by little, it's coming together..

Intake pipes are ready for welding:






The wastegate actuator will be moved to this tight spot; nice and out of sight:




Weeded out what's left of the EDIS harness..




I hope to source a few more essentials, (hope to find at Buggy Builders) and then I should be all set.

Made a little progress today with the fuel system. I took a Holley FPR and added a nipple for boost reference:




Add in a matching Holley Pump and we're almost there..




Props to Darren for the fuel tank:



I'm going to be putting this into the split, which will allow me to gain an extra 5 gallons. If I ever do plan on adding a fuel gauge, I have that option without having to cut up my stock tank.

Other then that, I was able to pick these back up from a darling young lady over in Rockford:






Thanks for the welds Joe!

Picked up some goodies at Buggy Builders, including this New Schadek 26mm Pump. Got back to Darren's and got busy tapping and plugging it for the full flow.




Then it was onto tapping the block..thanks for the tools ZPA.




Done deal..no cracks. Yay.
