Well guys I decided to finally tear down the Del Sol and rebuild the engine. But that is not where it stopped, I decided to go ahead with a wire tuck while I am at it. Here are some pics. I will update periodically.

Now just to get the time and money to get it done. :ninja: :doh:




Here are some pics of it the way it is now. I have the wire tuck on the car side pretty much done.

Still shooting to get itdone by mid april. It is going good right now. Does anybody know if the two relays that hang in the front by the a/c condensor are both for the a/c system. I really need to know.



Ok here are some pics of what the engine is looking like right now. Hope to have it done real soon.
