decided to paint it silver. put some misc stuff on, and routed the wiring. Still need a 2zz alternator as well as find a solution to all the fucking oil pan bolt threads being stripped on this block.
So it was bothering me too much not to check the oil pump. So I took it all back apart. Sure enough, more wear than I prefer. Just bought a new one...
not much left. Busted my ass almost every day after work to finish assembling (after the new oil pump and alternator came in) and getting it in the car. Last things left include; serpentine belt, battery, exhaust, rebuild passenger side axle (already have the Toyota kit), wiring in my oil pressure gauge, and bolting the rest of the suspension down. Probably do some tomorrow, the rest on Tuesday since I'm off that day.

No hardtop, and a tune before I get to beat on her. Just picked up some ID1000 injectors. Should be plenty for any power I will ever make with this motor.
Pulls awesome, super loud through tunnels. Went on a cruise and put a total of 300 miles on it today.
