This is how it sits right now, finally back on the road.
It's also being left here for me and dad to play with while turbodudey moves to Colorado. I'm a little stoked, I might even find time to take a photoshoot with my car and his together (which has never happened, sadly enough).
For more pictures and stuff, check the progress log.

will it stay together this time? One of my favorites on the site, and the only Yellow.. ANYTHING I've ever liked, and I cringe everything the motor goes on it.

It should be together for a while this time. Especially since I won't be driving it.
It's running very well now. Nice and quite and smooth (the engine that is).
Because that goofy piston was knocking so loud before I never really noticed, but that little turbo really whistles.

Yes, to summarize the history of this car's engine:
1) Stock motor, SRT turbo bolted on, boost in 5th gear = broken rods
2) Fully built motor to replace blown stock motor BUT wrong size cylinder bores = messed up piston skirt/knocking piston
3) Fully built motor with a different block and correct cylinders = currently happy and runs great.
Should run great for a long time now. I want bigger injectors and 18 psi.....
