nah, the motor that's sitting in front of it is going right back in.

that is if I can get these faackers running: (this is just a mock fit to see what clearances I'll have behind the motor. this pic was taken before I yanked the motor as you see above)

nope. hint: think older.

That's a brand spanking new pair of Weber DCOE 45's. Just took them out of the boxes to do the mock-up.



Badass! Details?

That's everything. No details yet because there's no progress.

I would love for you to do that. I'll have to put you to work though b/c it'll be an absolute miracle if I can at least get the damn thing running by summer.

You know it. Been rocking the Uni, the white headlight surrounds, white grille, custom clear corners and bumper lights, and custom clear vdub style sidemarkers since '99.

where did you get that intake manifold. I've been thinking about doing a DCOE 45 weber setup somewhere down the line, and it'd be nice if there's an already made manifold that can be modded to fit.

Mark! Dude now with your new manifold you're going to get to work right? We gotta see those DCOEs screaming in an Accord!!! Just think how glorious that is going to sound man! And the oomph that will give your motor! Where is your motor? Are you rebuilding it? Get to work! :)

Yea, I agree!! Get to work with you!

Oh yes, make sure to give that bay a good scrub before you put anything back in. Wax it if you can too, I forgot to do mine when I had it all apart, rahhhhhh!

Jigga, if you wanna come down here, bring your welder. I'm thinking of getting some stainless 2.25" bends/tube so I can get me a SS exhaust. ...now just need to find someone to weld it up.
