Looking good!!

I noticed that you have a eclipse/talon cluster.. Are you going with that??
Just asking 'cause i have one also and wondered if the colt turbo cluster that I have would just 'hook up' the same.
I can keep the talon one and sell the colt one (it's worth more)

I'm NOT looking foreward to wiring mine either..

Wiring is what I do to relax.

From what I see in your pictures you're about 20% there.

Getting the engine bolted in is about 10% of the way there.
The next 80% can go quickly with help and skill.
That last 10% takes about as long as the 90% that came before it.

the only real picture I could use is where the motor sits to the fire wall. I really don't want to pound on my baby too much to get the motor in.

thanks Ian

I am just been cleaning the engine compartment. getting it ready for paint. then I plan on getting the motor in there. What makes you think the head is bad? Is it just the head gasket?
