heh yea it don't run yet.. technically the motor needs to come out one more time so i can finish the oil pan (had to mod for cross member) install new oil pump, and put the pan back on.. but i still need a clutch kit (my tb is cooked) and an inter cooler (25x12x3 with 2.5 ins and outs)

anyways i ordered a oil pump, and pan gasket since the price dropped on germanautoparts. $57 for an oil pump, $4 for the gasket, and $10 for a timing belt.. next to be ordered will be ether clutch or inter cooler. then i just gotta get the jetronic sorted, and call it a day.. for now
