I have had alot going on lately and finally dropped the motor back in my 93 LX. I have to stick the upper intake on, SC stuff, clutch, trans, etc still though.

Stock 80k mile 90 shortblock
Edelbrock 6037 heads w 1.7 Cobra rockers
ARP head bolts
Cobra intake & 65mm TB
60lbers
90mm LMAF w/ MAFia
chip by me
Powerbond SFI balancer
Fidanza aluminum flywheel

ALOT of new stuff in the whole car, all new ball joints/tierods/shocks/struts calipers/rotors/pads/ you name it lol.

Vortech Si-Trim supercharger..almost forgot that. ZERO miles since the upgrade from S to Si.

Alot of powdercoating...should look nice all done. I like black and not much for the flashy stuff so most ended up black wrinkle exc. the lower intake.

Looks great. :awesomework: What cam are you running, and how much boost are you planning on stuffing into that thing?

Stock cam with 1.7 rockers. I'm going to run the stock 3.33 pulley since I had the head unit upgraded to the new Si-Trim, it should get me 2lbs more with the same pulley. I have a 3.12 I may run later. I'd like to stay around 12lbs, maybe 14 once I get meth kit again.

Yep, original 5.0 car its Reef Blue actually. It looks more green in the sun, I like the color though. It's loaded with all options except leather. Has power driver seat, moonroof, everything. I'm actually going to probably redo the interior in leather.

No, I have not worked on it all week! :( I am going to try and finish this week, and if it is not too cold out at least fire it up. I won't be able to tune it until spring but I'm going to make a startup tune for now that will be close enough for running the car.
