As much as I'd love to get them done my four main priorities are: keeping my family happy, being employed, managing my business and making sure my biggest investment is up to standards (house). The cars are always there and will get worked on once I find time and extra funds that don't hinder three out of the four I mentioned.

Anywho....on with the build and no more chitter chatter....lol Hope to see yet another dsm on the road soon!!

Ok so here's an update. We pulled the donor into the shop tonight for a little engine removal. Got the harness all unplugged and pretty much ready to come out. Tomorrow I'll be pulling the other car in to get the bay all cleaned up and abs removed to get ready for the motor swap. There's quite a bit of work left to do but were super pumped to get this rolling and tuned by October. I talked to Ft Dodge transmissions today and he's going to hook up my torque converter and restall it for me at a killer price.

Left to buy:
Dsmlink
Exhaust
Shift box

Small update here today. Pulled both cars into the shop today. Pulled both cars fenders off to switch out, cleaned the engine bay out and prepped for paint. Should be ready for the motor as soon as my torque converter is back from the tranny shop.

Ya I've been texting slo a little bit. Both the fwd and awd should be running by Friday night/Saturday morning. Got the tranny put bak together and the right flex plate today. My v3 Dsm link should be here Friday so I can start the car and start tuning it. October 20th is comin up fast but I should be all done by then
