FINALLY!, Tonight I finally got the engine in the car, all bolted up and everything. Just have to finish up a couple of the connections (which are being a real PITA like the cruise control cable for the TB, damn thing will NOT go in that hole! arghh.) Other wise, it's looking pretty damn good if I do say so myself. Check it out...  Wahoo...can't wait to drive her!!  Here's a pic of the SVT exhaust I bought off Po-Jay, custom DTM tips, I think it looks great!    I just wished I had the SVT bumper to go with it!! Album of engine swap is here if you want to see more pics. Album

I have a question for you on the FMS wire. I just got my set in the mail (blue too, good choice ) The instructions say to cut the wires 1" longer than the original wires. I know that you have to dremel out the wire looms, but did you bother to cut your wires and reattach the end? (it doesn't look like it...)

Thanks everyone for your comments. Yeah I love the exhaust tips myself. Po-jay sold me it so he has the credit for those tips!
