Good luck Jeremy. I'll keep checking for progress. This is really interesting and will be one hell of a car! Keep it up. I might have to plan a trip down to Orlando. I know the wife and I will be there for a week in September. I'll have to come and see it if I can.

update!!

well guys, i really wish it would stop raining, matt and i had the Z apart and motor out in just a few hours, then actually swapped all the fuel stuff and put the motor back in the G in about an hour. then of course it rained all day AGAIN!! maybe later tonight or possibly tomorrow i will have the motor into the Z and ready to put both cars back together. cant wait to get everything all done. i swear it has rained almost everyday since i started late last week!!

































these are the AC brackets, they are different on the Z and G and we had to take off a coolant line that attaches to it and the bracket and swap the whole setup. not a big deal just had to figure it out cause the compressors are totally different on the two cars.....

Sometimes I wonder who's a bigger boost junkie, me or you. You're pretty up there...

What's gonna happen with Alan's G after the swap?
