update for today.

connected my factory heater hose on the intake

took out the water pump and realized i forgot i ordered the wrong one. so i have to wait and get a spacer shipped out and it will be here on monday or tuesday.

installed the alternator

pulley bridge

put the blower on

plenum and throttlebody

throttle and cruise control cables

LFP quick change lower pulley


thats what ive got so far. i need to drop the gas tank again and redo the worn out vent hoses on it. next thing im goin to do is wire up the IC pump.

i didnt want to paint too much stuff and it look like crap, i think it will look fine once i get everything on.

i think the flash of the camera is makeing the white pop more than it really does.
