Time to work the dash

Time to work the inside...

testing the SR
http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e9/iBeLarryfool/IMG_20140314_215142_zpsa68e6de8.jpg (http://s36.photobucket.com/user/iBeLarryfool/media/IMG_20140314_215142_zpsa68e6de8.jpg.html)

time to go to through the SR

During the process of going through the SR and replacing bearings, all gaskets, exhaust studs, etc, we pulled the bottom and found that the bearing was spun and destroyed the bottom end....

So instead of building the SR Ive decided to go with the 2jz-ge.

Bought the block off of a friend
