Mine is pretty much ready to go, should be getting tuned for E85 on the 20th.

What's the cost of the vent covers?

Are you going to get an engineers certificate?

To say the coupes tunnel has been massaged is a nice way of saying it, it has been massaged so far that in one spot they have welded in a patch which is a triangle plate about 150mm long and 30mm wide.

For the position of the engine that is up to you where you make it sit as it depends on what you want from it. The coupe engine sits higher and more forward than the sedan, the sedan was positioned to lower the weight of the engine and put the weight as far back to help with handling and it also allows the radiator to be thicker and taller. The coupe has the radiator mounted under the frame at the front which allows the engine to be mounted forward but as mentioned this puts the weight at the front which wont help the steering.

Here are a couple of photos of the location near the fire wall and radiator.

I have Unfamilia's old sedan where the tunnel was cut out and replaced and i have a coupe with the tunnel massaged. I highly recommend that you cut out the tunnel and replace it with a larger tunnel as on the coupe i have to pull the engine if i want the gearbox out and it is a complete pain in the ass. Not replacing the tunnel would be cheaper but i think you will regret not doing it. The next time i pull the gearbox on the coupe i plan on cutting the tunnel.

Also the sedan still runs the standard heater box, it sits very close to the tunnel but it does fit.

Thanks Bert, have just purchased a 20l cell from ebay - $125 delivered. thats pretty cheap.

Would anyone have a fuel cell sitting around that they would part with. It is for a budget project so it does not need to look good just has to be functional and safe. The cheaper the better.

Thanks, thats what i need to know.

Cool thanks. Will start by getting that tomorrow, I will also need a product to seal the threads at the pump, would anyone have any suggestion of what i can use, i dont really trust the people at the shops around here.
