Pics of my new swap (NO 56K)
Kinda but not really. We have a lot of custom work to do to this POS intake manifold and I wanted to verify that it even cleared the firewall before we put a lot of time into it. So we left the engine on the stand and lowered the car to it and lined up and bolted up one engine mount just to check it out.
Here are some previous threads about my buildup of this car if you want to know the setup:

I still have to do the rear suspension and brakes and some other crap before the car is driving. Hoping to have this car all finished up thruout December.
PICS of test fit:
Check out that intercooler in the last pic!
Thanks for looking! Looking forward to the comments! You guys and your positive words always help me stay motivated on getting this car done.
Thanks!

yes the bay was painted with the engine out. one of my 3 links on top is to the thread about when i did that. if you look this engine is not really in my car yet even, its just sitting there on the engine stand and one motor mount, the car is on a lift a couple feet in the air. i was just test mounting it to check for intake manifold clearance.

Re: (gaydm.accord)
the trans will be on the motor before the motor is really installed. its already back out, that was just a test fit with one motor mount to verify that the intake manifold clears.

Re: (mister2racer)
I wish I could put my car on a pedestal like that. Very nice.
