Done with the motor, i found i had electrical issues when my ground wire for my fans began to smoke. So installed 2 relays and wired one in for the fuel pump while i was at it. And this is were i'm at today i've wired my my digital guages and just need to finish going through setting them up and do an oil change and hopefull i'm ready to put it on the road.
