So I was all revved up to get stuff done this week, and life just decided to stop that. I got the worst stomach flu I ever remember having. Today I finally felt better and cranked out some stuff on the car:

Exhaust is all done. All brackets are bolted up, and everything is good to go! Tucks under the car pretty nicely.

Mmmmm. This is gonna be a fun car. I've got 5.5inches of ground clearance at the lowest point, which is where the 3.5" center exhaust runs under the differential, it bends up and becomes 8" at the exhaust tips. I'm hopping this won't drag anywhere, we'll see. I'm liking the stance, and the front end should come down just a hair once I get everything together (radiator, fluids, grill, bumper, etc.).

There is JUST barely enough room to get the cap in there. I had to remove the rotor, get the cap tipped in there, hold the cap up and screw on the rotor, then drop the cap down on top. Even 1/8" less room and I'd have been SOL. Luckily, my planning seems to be working out so far (knocks on wood).

Here is the lid on the top. This is a pretty sweet lookin engine. More to follow!
