Looking good!

Looks awesome! What color did you paint that engine? That's a really nice color.

the engine is painted an industrial machine grey. these are older pics, but i dont think i missed to much between the 3rd and 4th. except the motor mounts. i just used the 1st gen crossmember. it fit nicely between the m715 frame rails.

could have been out before. turbo was a freebie so who knows. m715 doesn't have a heater so i might hook the heater lines from the engine to the turbo.
