 Re: Wes's 2.3l 6-bolt build
Didn't get as far as I wanted today but the trans is bolted up to the engine and it is ready to drop in. I might have a chance to put it in Sunday night but it will most likely be Monday or Wednesday. Here are some pictures of the PTT clutch.   And here are just some overall shots of the engine as I finished up tonight.

 Re: Wes's 2.3l 6-bolt build
very nice, now one can not only drool at the exterior looks of your car, but also what's in your engine bay.

 Re: Wes's 2.3l 6-bolt build
Then my car must be making like 500hp cause that ish is leaving puddles. Looking good though Wes. That turbo really wakes up over 20lbs. I had been driving it at around 17lbs and recently up'ed it to 22-24 and man what a difference.
