Core is a 4.5" Garrett core, big thanks to Ron and the rest of the crew at Shearer Fabrications.

Got the intercooler on the car and pipes cut.









Still have to finish the wiring, install more safety equipment, install the seats, chute mount and plumb the fuel system. I also need to pick up a small battery kit from somewhere for the car. Hoping to have it all up and running in the next month or two.

Thanks a lot for all who have helped thus far, the guys at the shop Wier's Automotive, Ron Shearer, Marco @ Magnus, Brian Nutter @ wiseco, and Keith @ Turbotrix.

Had to sideline this project for a month or so due to not having any time, and family stuff. Will be back on it this week, hope to fire it up first of the year and give myself plenty of time for surprises before hot rod.

Will also be converting the car over to e98 for the fuel setup, so it will be running 2300CC injectors instead of the 1600s.

Should have more pictures of the progress up soon.

Been working on the chute mount a little over the last two days. Couple things I don't like about it and am going to look into changing. Shortly son, shortly.

On a 2nd note I was looking at the Lincoln today and I was thinking of putting some sort of LSx engine in it. I'm gonna drive that bitch to Maxton and bust both your asses with it! lol.

I thought I commented on this build before............hmmmm. It makes me want a 1g.

[Johntsi]

HAH, you don't have the balls to keep your foot to the mat at 200MPH Ron .

Looking forward to the mount and if you have time the driveshaft loop. I have some other interesting projects I have been working on for this car that I think will leave Reichen jealous.

Tomorrow hopefully we finish Wendy's car and I can work on completing the electrical system on this one.

HAH, you don't have the balls to keep your foot to the mat at 200MPH Ron .

Maybe not in the Lincoln. Would be afraid the rear doors would fly open or the top would turn into a parachute!

[Force-Fed Performance]

lol i go to maxton everytime it is a blast!!!

[Craracer05]

Projects like this make me wish I had money

You did just over on evo-tec.

[itsme4g63]

Wow looks like no spared expense even the oilpan is brand new. That setup looks sick in there. Makes me miss my 1g

Now thats what I want to see! Cause I know new parts will get designed from BR for the 1g's if you do.

[Johntsi]

I agree Dave, the only BR part on the car at this point is the COP, make some new cool shit and I will buy it.

[Johntsi]

Well, time was cut short today and spent most of my time on another car but did manage to get the battery kit installed and the Q45 put on, IC piping to TB cut, now to remove couplers and weld the piping and put on the BOV and IAT.

[Mike@AwdMotorsports]

Nice build.. a 1g really is the best body for the mile.. Good luck!!
