Just thought I'd post a few quick pics of the KE20 after paint today. Sorry pics were taken at night and not the best...
Motors almost ready to go back in, then strip, here we come!.
I'll post some better pics soon, plus engine bay shots when engine is refitted.

Slight tunnel and firewall mods, very little tho. Turbo's are fairly high mounted, almost dead behind headlights. Battery moved to boot, custom mounts etc..The intake's a work of art.
It's currently running:
Holden 253 v8 (red motor), Forgies, moly rings, moly pushrods, copper head gasket, roller rockers, 9.2:1 Comp, cross drilled crank, gilmer drive belt, hi vol oil pump, 160lbs valve springs, twin td04L turbo's (running 12psi), twin modified B2 gas converters, twin GasResearch gas carbs, fully manualised trimatic, 2500rpm stall, Volvo 240gl diff, locked centre, and alittle more that would take some thought 
Being a car pre 27 and 27A emissions if I were to put some decent brakes on it, I could road reg it, but not concerned at the moment. It started as a joko/silly project and has gone alot further than ever expected.
For anyone located in Melb, it will be at the easternats next easter to strut it's stuff. I'll be happy to take joyrides.

Sounds interesting. Be good to see the engine bay photos before & after the engine is refitted to see firewall & tunnel mods.

I will post all pictures soon, engine and box going back in this weekend hopefully, it's only set up for drag and the usual 'nats' burnouts. Too much weight in the front and brakes not sufficient for circuit.
