Looking good! What are you doing for a harness? Another RYR conversion for first gen?

Very cool build. I also remember the silver K20. I like how you tied it all together. This one looks like a solid start to another awesome finished product.

im impressed that you do not appear to have modified the firewall. we did a 1977 civic wagon with a d16a6 auto drive train about ten years ago and had to box part of the firewall for some clearance. looks like a great build though, i bet it will be a beast when it runs.

katch24

Very little needed to be trimmed ( upper stock motor mount ) but nothing off the firewall. This car is also a cvcc not a 1200 so I had almost 3 more inches to work with. Thanks for looking and the comments!

extra bracing to help with the load it will tie in by the door when its done.

dropped the car off at De'Caudella's to have the engine bay painted. I am also having the motor boarded for the new pistons.

Excellent update on this car! I just have a question on what type of Painless kit did you use? Was it a basic race or off road sealed version? I'm gonna guess an 18 circuit fuse box?

That seems to be the way to go with a new wiring kit to help ease some of the wiring headaches.

Please keep us updated!
