After fixing all the metal, I sanded down the entire engine compartment.


and painted it the color of the car. I figured if I was going the EFI route, I might as well stray from the black engine compartment also... just to be different.

Added a power brake booster and m/c from a fox body

and brakes from a granada with global west suspension parts. 1 1/8" front sway bar to make everything handle a bit better.

This was the day I put the engine in. I managed to not scratch anything... took lots of care and checking.

This is the special AOD crossmember. What a nice piece!
