Well, we finally got the car started. I ended up having two connectors incorrectly connected. One was on the passenger side kick panel, the other was in the engine bay near the ABS module. After finding these, reconnecting them, and turning PATS off, the car started. As of right now, everything sounds great and I hoping to get to on the road in the next week. I'll post a video soon!

Yeah, 44's. I actually cleaned the engine a bit before I dropped it in. It was fairly dirty before wise lol.

That's the same exhaust I ran did you have issues with the x pipe clearing the body side of the trans mounts?

No, it actually fit quite well. I haven't test fit the catted pipe yet though. Is that what you had a problem with?

No I have an o/r x pipe and where it comes down on the driver side the short tube(2 piece upr)hits the tranny mount and doesn't let the exhaust clear.

Sadly, not much. I've been so busy with a my back yard project I haven't had much time to dig into the car.

But, I did run into yet another problem. When I filled the power steering and started the car, the brakes locked up. Any ideas?
