You should toss the headlight harnesses in the fenders. Looking good so far! I can’t wait to see it out.

i put the competition stage 5 clutch in the car, so when i turbocharge it i dont have to take it out. it only took about 5 minutes to get the motor out since only the mounts were connected. i had to put new mount inserts in as well.
