This is a picture of the engine compartment after we pulled the stock 3.4 out of my firebird.

This is after about 2 hours of scrubbing and power washing the engine compartment.

This is a picture of the Grand National engine resting in its new home. I know it is still missing a couple of things.

Same as above but now you can see the pretty welds that rl did

engine management will be handled by rl smile.gif Basically i have a buick computer and a pontiac computer and im going to run them both so i dont lose some of the things from the pontiac one. Then the buick computer will control just the engine. The rear end is a 94 z28 rear end so it is better than the v6 rear, and will hold up for a decent amout of time. gotta remember im running the stock turbo and i am only hoping for low 12's this season

Here are some more up to date pics of the car, if everything goes as planned she might be running this weekend, there are also some shots of the muffler i will be using :D . All i have left to do is power steering, torque arm mount, and mount the throttle cable. Then rl has to wire it all up and then its time for some graemlins/burnout02.gif .
