UPDATE

Riddle for you: What is
  1. Red
  2. Ugly
  3. A POS
  4. Idling in my garage right now
If you said TD's car, step right up and get your Rice-a-roni gift pack! That's right, after many, many, many, many hours in the garage, the goddamn thing is running. And, on the first try I should add. My insane amount of prep work really does pay off I guess.

Some pictures.

This is the new right side of the engine. It shows where the majority of new engine/system harness is now located. This is the main area where the brand new main harness meets the existing DME harness. You know, the one from the 86 in the 84.

The left side. Notice the... well... nothing. All wiring from this side, including the rat's nest under the driver's feet, has been removed.

The dash showing the back of the fuse panel wired into the car. Like I showed in earlier pictures, the fuse panel is completely removable from the car for upgrades, testing, and repairs. Note the cool-ass switch panel in the middle (made by Charlie) and the lack of gauges.

The fuse panel in position with the minute gauge showing the engine has been running for exactly 5 minutes, thus halving its remaining life span.

Well, the damned thing runs. The only thing left is to hook up the gauges (already wired) and we're done.
