Hey guys sorry about that. I had to put the Foz on the back burner for a week so I could get a few quick $$ makin jobs to pay the bills. However I did manage to get some time in this last week and weekend on the Foz before another job showed back up.

While I was taking a break on the Foz a buddy of mine TIGed up some parts for me since I don't have a tig. My P/S rez, coolant tank, radiator, and my coolant manifold. I ended up welding the intercooler and intake manifold myself with my spool gun. Welds were ugly but they had good penetration so I just grinded them down.

BOV and intercooler pipe finished up and installed..



Next was starting on getting all my lines finished. For my lines I have welded on AN adapters with puch-lock fittings to make maintainance easier. So I started with mounting all my crap.



For the coolant manifold because I have a V-Mount and the radiator is so low I welded in a fillter cap into it. This is just a threaded cap not a pressyre cap the coolant tank has that. Its like an 02 wrx setup.



Got some of the lines for the turbo figured out..



And stepped back for a nice engine shot..



Last I got a good amount of the fuel lines and pieces mounted for the fuel delivery system.



So the GC8 project I have been working on is back from what was sopposed to be getting painted but its taking too long to I told them to give it back after it was jammed so I could finish it and get paid. I'll be working on that most of the week but I will still be putting in the weekends on the Foz to keep it moving along. Once the GC is done I'll have the time and most importantly the money to get the engine built and order the last few parts I need to actually finish this thing.
