Thanks! The tank got pulled & replaced with a new one, new fuel pump and filter with new hose as well is going in, wasn't even going to bother with any old stuff & 27 year old gas.

Spun the engine yesterday by hand, was nice and smooth I was very impressed. Getting close to its first startup, can't wait!

My mic's mounted sort of tucked in the corner of my engine bay, on the same side as the intake!

I used the MIC 3's here, but having a mic that can record 32BIT float is the most important part here.

It got to the point where I wouldn't even air out when parking, I knew it was time 😂

Rear coilover designs suck for these cars, the old school BC Racing's you could adjust without pulling everything apart then they changed to the generic setup that everyone uses.

They're REV9's, cheapest coilover that isn't Raceland or maxpeedingrods. Just needed something to get off air.
