    gonna go this route for 32 spline outputs and good assortment of ranges. 7ish:1 would be too low with the auto.

    Got the motor in and started wiring/ plumbing

    Motor barely clears the hood with the engine cover on


    Giant hole in the floor for the 205


    Headers, exhaust and motor mounts were a tight fit but everything fit on the passenger side

    hopefully, but no mud this time and the intake is going to be in the cowl instead of under the hood

    I got all of the engine wiring and plumbing done (except radiator)

    I need to wire up the fuel pump and gauges and the motor should be ready to start. Hopefully I can get it running either this weekend or next.

    Let me know if you need help. Either way, let me know when you are going to fire it. I'd like to be there for that.
