my long term build with lots of pics.

**smoking rr** · 12-04-2011, 09:05 PM

here is a recap from about 3 years back. this has been a long build in the coming. it got put on hold for a few years due to moving, buying a house, and getting divorced. i have made more progress in the past 2 months than i have in the past 3 years and i am LOVING it!

this is going to be mostly pics just bc i like to share. if anyone has any questions feel free to ask.

ok, here is a little background of troubles. I traded a motorcycle for this car back in july or aug of 08. the car didnt run and the kid didnt know how to work on it. nither did i but i really wanted it so i taught myself. I spent a lot of time on forums reading everything i could find and asking lots of questions. I want to thank EVERYONE that has helped me out to this point. well i got it running (bad ecu) and drove it most of the time, then i started modding it and all was well till my power steering belt broke and got between my timing belt and crank pully. this caused my timing to jump just enough to bend every single valve. i got it home and was just going to replace the valves and be on my way... well one thing lead to another and now i have the motor out and lots of plans. here is my list but i am sure i am leaving a lot out.

120K tune up
16T's
FMIC
pistons/rings/bearings
GM blow through
piggy pack controler
guages (WB O2, boost, oil temp, oil pressure, water temp, volts, EGT, fuel pressure)
vacume reduction
99 lifters
SS clutch line
fuel pump and hot wire
some powder coating under the hood
2nd gen brakes
2nd gen front end
lots and lots more that i cant think of at the moment

Very clean looking TT man.

Needs to be lowered, other than that, looks like a nice pick up.

Thanks. It will be lowered and different wheels. I have a bunch of pics to put up but my photo bucket account was giving me troubles.
