    One kind of cool thing I did was use an old power steering cooler from a 1970 Lincoln. The fox body is kinda silly being just a tube. I had to add the spacers to the front wheel to make them fit with the brakes. I am using 15 Weld wheels.

    Ignore the last two pics. The controller allows for two speeds. It uses a BMW sensor, It's pretty cool. I almost ready to start it!

    Well I decided to take a break from the engine and move towards the interior. There is so much detail work needed. I added a small stereo system. I used the factory head unit and a few amps and a woofer. It is coming along. I was so frustrated with the headers. the drivers side fit. Well after I switched to a hydroboost and modified the down pipe. The passenger side header fits but it is impossible to get the bolts in it. I plan on fastening it to an old iron 302 head and modify the area near the bolts.

    I use the little clips to hold the headliner on while the contact adesive dries. It works really well

    Moving along but slow
    I made an appointment to get it tuned. The tuner said that he wants me to set the actuators at 7 pounds and put a push controller.
    So I added the controller today
    I had some major problems with the damn dash I tried to use the factory gauges and that didn’t go as planned then I decided to add auto meter gauge set although they’re really sweet. The damn thing did not fit worth a damn.

    They are suppose to fit, but they clearly did not look at all I had to cut
