My POS/Street Sleeper has been down at LowBugget getting all the plumbing done. Sticking this big EFI turbo motor in the Oval and getting EVERYTHING to fit in the engine compartment with the deck lid closed has been a challenge, and the guys at LOWBUGGET have really been up to it. OMG what a cool job they are doing.

I'm almost sorry to post these pictures as they show just how fugly my POS is, BUT they show how really clean their install and routing is. The only thing That I don't have a picture of is the really cool way they have installed the innercooler, tank and radiator on the firewall using the engine fan for cooling the radiator. And the best part is no water lines have to be broken or anything removed to pull the engine. I should be getting the car back in the next week and I'm so pumped to get this thing fired.

Nice going man! Looking good! I'm in the same boat. I have spent some serious cake on hoses and fittings! Need to get some pics up of my pile. I just forget the camera everytime I work on that heap.  Grin
