Small update.
I got the trunk floor & fuel cell frame all welded up, and sheet metal is in. I still have to seam seal the top and bottom before paint. This 15 gallon cell should get me around the block a few times.
I plan to powdercoat the cell & fully finish out the trunk with marine carpet or vinyl. I still need to build my false walls first.
Just tryin to get the basic stuff done.
One day at a time.

I may get bashed for this but I dont really care. I hated the look of my older victor jr heads, so I did my research and decided to paint the engine.
After stripping the entire motor with a drill/wirewheel and etch priming the motor I bought some Ppg, 2k single stage paint.
Ive read that a normal basecoat/clearcoat can yellow, so a single stage should get it done.
Automotive paint is said to hold temps to around 250 so ill be fine. Plus this finish will stay nice for a long time.
The intake is going to be powdercoated some type of matte silver.

Im planning to start on my new turbokit in the next couple weeks.
Gonna do a polished ceramic coating this time , so it should look good with that black motor.
Ordered a Team Z motor plate so my turbo support can be mounted to it.
I Still need a few things here before I can begin the next step.
I really like the design of the Stainless works x275 kit they offer. But at $2800, fabbing my own kit will keep me in budget.
So im just gonna copy that kit Ebay style!
It will all be in 304 stainless though.
something like this.
