Well after 2 years of down time, I decided it was about time to fuck with that 420a... here you go here is some pics to see what you think?






...
Not to crazy its all stock bottom and top end.

Looks good!

What about some pictures of the car?

Solid. Having GlowShit anything within a foot of critical parts of the oiling system would make me severely nervous, but I have no reason to question their quality, beyond knowing it's an indiglo gauges/undercar neon company now dabbling in critical engine parts?

:wary

I rocked one of those sandwich adapters on my 2g with no issues. Hard to fuck up a part as simple as a brass tee... I would think. :P

Thanks for all the positive posts everyone it feels so good for fellow 2gnt'rs to tell me on how good it looks Lol i would take a pic of the car but its cold as hell right now in NC i will get some up tomorrow. Its not the greatest looking cause I am trying to do some more things as in molding in the side skirts, finishing the headlight restoring. Also more to come as a I can is a suspension upgrade. Thinking about some KYG adjustables and D2sport springs...Any good ideas> The d2sport are a 2" drop but I am not sure if that is the real stance I want..

Hey, I couldn't help but notice in your pics that you have a glowshift sandwich adapter. Are you going to use their gauges as well? The reason I was asking because I was thinking of using their gauges but a little bit skeptical.

Like Um T adapter...Hang on I got a link to show you.

I got you now. I have another question. What are the benefits of using a T adapter as opposed to the sandwich adapter?

you still have to use the stock oil sandwhich. the glow stift is just an adapter...It allows you to connect oil temp and oil press gauges to it...They are predrilled and tapped

well guys the trans is now mounted/.

I understand about the adapters now. Anyway good luck with your build.

Is this a stock re-build? Or is there any performance tied into this?

EDIT: Nevermind. Just re-read and saw it stated stock top and bottem end build after pics.

Well I'm waiting on a few parts and lines to come in so I will be finishing this weekend...

Some new updates I will post more with cleaner bay
