Message	But I got into the "might as well" cycle of money spending. Engine is out so I might as well to the flywheel, clutch, down and test pipes, undrive pulley and all that. Then it was ported manifolds since they're pretty cheap and don't take much to install. Then it was a set of fuel injectors. And then turbos. Then pistons and rods. And inconel manifolds. Anyway, long story short, the two week project has dragged on for a year as I buy more parts for it. Hopefully will be ~500 near lag free ponies to rears when it's finished. Profile has the complete list of parts. More or less.
