well alot has gotten done, the tranny is bolted on thanks to innovative for my clutch and estorvito for the flywheel (thanks bro!!) all i need to do is get an alternator, dizzy, LS ECU, wire up the engine (im making my own harness), exhaust manifold and then make my own exhaust. im going to piece together a turbo kit and boost over the winter, so for now ill be n/a, but i need a car right now so i dont mind. heres a pic with the tranny on the engine. ![http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h183/jdmjunkie4404/Photo-0156.jpg](http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h183/jdmjunkie4404/Photo-0156.jpg) ---

[/quote] Please do! Im going to try the same thing over winter. So you are going to remove the firewall plug? I want the whole harness to enter the car at one center location. Here is what I came up with so for, This was all with out cutting anything. both sides of the ECU harness where pulled inside the car. ---
