Thanks guys ...oh HIGGI i am using the tb that i bought from you also its awsome

well heres the pics as promised of when i removed the whole a/c and heater unit, plus any harness and vent tubes , brackets..etc....

hell i think i racked up close to 60lbs of weight reduction just there




as for what i am instaling in place of the logicon i still have to decide but i am getting a nice big head unit probably the kenwood excelon to fit in the stock position and then i can set up my wideband, boost controler and turbo timer there in place of the vents and logicon

Wow all i have to say is that engine is looking might purtty. I would clean the rotors even if it doesnt add anything extra to the engine, but its nice to know you put your car back together with clean parts =).

Where can i get some of that cleaner, if its military stuff im assuming its not on the market?

looks like a great project. How long do you think it'll take?
Mines been outta comission for 7 months, but getting real close now. I'd definetly recommned new rotor housings and ultra-somic cleaning the parts as well.
Cant wait to see it unfold.
