here's a shot of the old motor on its way out
just had the flywheel machined, then a few pics of the clutch setup

Awesome car man!
You got any 1/4 mile times? Dyno figures? What boost do you normally run?
How's your gearbox holding up? My car is incredibly similar to your. It'll have a front mount too in a week or two!
Good luck!
