Great News! and a bummer...

Well, its all done, the motor is installed, and we even fired it up and it runs great! On the jackstands! We noticed the crank pulley is off about a half inch, so ryan has to order a spacer, and it wont ship till monday at the earliest. Looks like it will be done tuesday if he buys next day. After that we have to install the rad and up pipe and down pipe.

In addition Corey was nice enough to donate his bilstein shocks off of the cobra, and we installed them in the fox body today, now the damn thing has a brand new suspension. The only thing in the suspension that was stock, was the front shocks. The car sounds, revs, and idles totally different from before, we were surprised how well it fired up and started right away from being apart and together, we didnt even feel like playing with the tune so we just wanted to see if it would fire as is.

Now that it got to get a little warmed up, Beezer (Beezer Built Race Engines & Machining) reccomended that we re torque the intake manifold bolts, headers etc, now that it is heat cycled, so we will do that tomorrow, maybee install the hood, little things. Here are some pics, Corey installing new spark plugs, and the motor in running condition without the charge pipes or radiator lol. Just updated with Pics of the new (used) Bilstein shocks installed and the old original 1989 shocks removed.

Here is video of it running, please pardon the smoke, its all the junk (oil coolant power steering fluid etc) on the headers burning off. It is also obviously running rich, so its puffing a lil smoke. Enjoy
