got around to doing a few things this week and this section of ratsun needs some movement enough with the tits
today i mocked up the motor in the bay, needs some minor things but looks like i will have to do a tranny tunnel so i will be cutting away here soon.....


mounted my intake manifold




my material for my turbo manifold, i will mock up and make it once the motor is sitting where it needs to be.
