  1. Engine & Transmission Installed!

    Installed the BluePrint 331 engine and Tremec TKO500 transmission over the weekend. We worked at a careful pace and still got everything bolted up and installed in less than 4 hours. The engine looks great! It's hard to stay on task now. I find myself staring at the engine. I can't wait to feel what 400+hp / 400+torq feels like in this tiny car!

  3. Brake lines run, electical started.

    Last Sunday I had my friend RJ come over and he helped run the brake lines for me. He had a nice Snap-On flaring tool which made for a real clean install. I am using a hydraulic clutch so I used the existing hole for the clutch cable to run the lines out and down the frame. Turned out pretty nice, if I were to do it again I would of used fittings to go threw the firewall for a even cleaner install but it turned out great.

  4. Vacation over.. Back to working on the car.

    I took a small break from the car to pool up some money for things that would be needed. My 347 stroker is being built here locally and that’s going as we speak.

    Get ALL your paperwork in order. You'll need the MSO from Factory Five, and receipts showing sales tax paid for all major components. If
