:eek: Holy cats, that is some Engine Porn right there, that is!
The yellow scheme is an interesting choice, but an attractive one that matches the stock cambelt cover! :D
This reminds me, I've lately wondered about the feasibility of permanently adding caster-wheel attachment points to the subframe, so there'd be no need for a dolly. Just jack up the front and pull the wheels, screw casters into the subframe, lower the front end onto the casters, detach the subframe etc., then lift the front end off and roll away the powertrain. Maybe this is more trouble than it's worth vs. just fashioning up or buying a dolly...

Yellow - the car is black, so the yellow details make a nice contrast. (Lots of beta boyz items)
New injectors, 9.8:1 pistons (I actually had a new set sitting in my basement), various other goodies. Working through replacing all the dried and crack rubber hoses. Wiring harness is a complete mess - lots of jumper wires striaght off the postive battery post. Cleaning up the wiring is proving an interesting challange.
Also working on getting the AC system to function. My goal is to use the coupe as a daily summer driver.

I have a problem this plastic fixing stripes on CV booties. They are contacting with ball joint finger. It is better using metal stripes.
