doing some very nice work. Keep the updates coming. (when is the new motor going in?)

Frank5L · 07-22-2006, 01:38 AM

Dang you might have your motor in your truck before I have mine in! HAH

Are you gonna run the factory oil cooler setup?

Got the adapter in from detroitspeedworks

Moroso also sells one of their own now and it includes all the fittings, but it's anodized a terrible blue color

It's 125 or 130 on summit.

Frank5L · 07-22-2006, 01:46 AM

Cool. My dad machined one for me. Moroso's time table was not the same as mine. And Livernois told me detroit speedworks was 'behind' as well. So I picked up a couple -10 O Ring fittings and gotta figure out how I'm gonna hook up the coolant hose, but otherwise its done. He's retired and has nothing better to do anyway! HAH Well maybe ride his Goldwing.

I probably just didnt pay enough attention to your motor on the stand.

It's not on in that picture. Livernois told me they had them in stock, so I'll find out I guess?

Frank5L · 07-22-2006, 01:51 AM

Well that was some time ago. I thought I'd be alot further along than I am. I probably could have bought it and waited but then I'd be sitting on my thumbs waiting for it to get here. (My luck)

Looks great! Keep up the great work!

I'll have a motor in but there's still a good wait ahead for me on all the turbo plumbing and other fabwork.

My turbo is supposed to ship next week though

edit: just checked with livernois, the adapter shipped and will be here wednesday.

Frank5L · 07-22-2006, 02:13 AM

I hope mine is "done" in about 8-10 days

falstaff · 07-22-2006, 08:27 AM

Evans makes an adapter also.

mistergadget · 07-22-2006, 10:05 PM

It's in. Pictures later tonight.

mistergadget · 07-22-2006, 11:42 PM

Picked up the longblock from my friend's garage via mod-motor chariot

She's still got a glint in her eye
