Got a little work done on the rear housing today. Lots more to do.
Built a brace to tie the upper link mount to the back brace. It's probably overkill.
Played around with some spare links I have in the shop. I think I'm going to run the wheelbase at 110"

Looking good man!
I'm going to modify the factory bracket to hold this CBR pump. PSC wants $400 for their CBR pump. I ordered this from rock for $120. It's for a 2011 camaro.
Had this valve cover powder coated. I'm happy with how it turned out.

Nice! What color is that?
I just looked at the samples at the powder coated and picked it out. I can get the color code off the receipt if anyone wants it. It will eventually be on top of an aluminum head. For now it's going on an engine that's painted new Ford gray.

Photobucket sucks, so I made a shared album on google photos. Unfortunately, I haven't figured out how to link the photos to just show up on the post. I tried writing the IMG code but that didn't work.
I now have a 4wd M5R1 with a 2.3 bellhousing. I mated it up to my 2.3 and started lining things up. I need the engine raised up quite a bit to keep the oil pan and transmission out of the rocks. I'm trying to keep this as low as possible. Lots of work to get this where I want it. The adapter on the back of the trans is from NWF. It converts the 5 bolt to the popular 6 bolt and uses a spud shaft to change it to 31 spline. The main downside is the added length.

Since my 9" rear end has equal length axle shafts, the pinion is offset to the passenger side. I'm shifting the engine over, which should help keep my upper suspension link off of my driveshaft.

That's going to be nice having the trans up so high! That cerekote looks killer as well! You are making me want to tear my rig apart and make it look nice lol
