My 3L SVT build

[HAZZARD]

I thought I would start a thread for the progress of my 3L build from start to finnish, as i go.
Im taking many detailed pictures every step of the way, but I will only be posting a few of them. If you want to see more just ask and I will post whatever i have.

Hopefully this wont take long!!

This is what I started with
1999 CSVT in great shape for $500






less than 12 hours after I got it.



and 6 hours after that.


lots of down time this weekend so i have been cleaning parts.
everything laid out on my garage floor.

Looks like you need to run the cupholder through the dishwasher, that thing is sick.

You wont be running the upgraded cupholders? Those will deff block the line of site on those gauges. You also may want to angle them up a bit.

now that your that far, put your hvac controls their and then put the gauges in the hvac holes.

I dont need any cup holders no one drinks or eats in my cars their just their to hold my Ipod LOL. and I am going to angle them up, but im waiting on the angled rings to come in.

now that your that far, put your hvac controls their and then put the gauges in the hvac holes.

That will come later, got to figure out how to mount the hvac controls down their. any thoughts?

Make sure you upload in Pics and Videos (and with a sound clip for the engine). I'm sure everybody's waiting to see and hear. I don't think as many frequent this forum compared to Pics and Videos.
