Well it's been just under a 2 year project with work being done about one weekend a month. There's still some little touching up in the engine compartment that needs to be done like installing a coolant reservoir and connecting the heater core lines.The heater core leaked so we had too run a by pass line to the oil cooler.We made all the brackets to make the swap possible here at home. The Rx-7 radiator we used needed a pair of brackets to offset it from the bottom because it was a tad too tall for the hood to close, thus we needed to go with the water cooled oil cooler.We installed the electric fan as a pusher due to the limited space in between the radiator and water pump. There was only one ignitioned wire under the hood therefor we went with the realys that operate the fuel pump,coils,fan and turn on the alternator.As of now the car will retain the orginal paint and the dents it's aquired through out it's time. We installed some mid 80's honda prelude seats. Very minor mods were needed to fit them in. Will post more pix of whatever lil mods are done to the car...
