How long did it take you to get everything in?

once trans was bolted...we had it dropped in real quick. We then trailered it back that night to his house because of a non-start issue.

but i am unclear how many hours it took.

Nice pics guys. I like the paintjob on the valve covers. Can't believe how much the fork was bent, that's nuts, takes a lot of force to do that. Good job on figuring it all out.

 

[Alperovich]

Thanx guys! It was quite a project, I'm working on finishing the exhaust and I'll get some video footage and a full photoshoote early next week

The valve covers are powerdercoated candy orange and the pictures do not give them justice!

soon I'm starting the interior pull for the fatmatting John is hooking me up with + rerunning my sound system wiring, and a freshly cleaned carpet.

the most impressive pictures are,

the picture of a young man embracing the legend G2 engine with confident smile on his face...

the picture of a young man flintstoning mometarily disabled legend with his two arms....


I can not believe my eyes... not just the finished engine, all those tools and time and work space (work environment), all those allowance that made it happen!

If you are a professional auto-tech, you are on the right job.
If you are not, then, you really love legend... just awesome....

nice! its about time! when you were dropping the motor in, you let it sit on the radiator support then slid it back? I noticed the scratched radiator support haha

 

[pro_foundac91]

naw, that was from when we pulled the engine out!

so whats the purpose of a nsx filter when you put a cheapo crappy filter on for the install? j/w

yea like I'm going to waste my $10 each NSX filters for breakin. and actually the other filter wasn't even a cheap crappy filter. It was a decent quality filter which was larger then a normal legend filter but a little smaller then oem nsx filter.

its with the t-test pipe in place, i haven;t gotten the bpipe yet but the exhaust is directed as much as possible thru the old bpipe but there is a 3-5in gap.

um underneeth?? i'll see what i can do, i want to pull the valve covers and check the tq there

 

[Alperovich]

i decided to reclean underneeth the hood today.

Looks real good now.

Also i went back and retightend bolts and nuts here and there.

I found alot that have come loose or were never too tight.

shez running alot better now.
