Well time for a long over due update. Been busy with work, kid and the woman. So now that I've had some me time in between family life I've made some leaps forwards. 1st off sold my 93 maroon mustang over the weekend and now left with my blue 92 hatch. Did a 5 lug and 97 GT split 5 wheels. Installed a new Intellitronix "Build A Dash" because I really don't like inaccurate gauges. I'll grab an other picture soon with it finished I was too excited to get it into the car and for got to take one. I'm going to order a new cluster housing lens and tent it so you wont seen the gauges until they light up. The kit came with a sheet of tented plexi-glass but I think my way will be easier and look better. Lets see.... Oh I've been building a new harness using MS3 10' wiring with the labels printed on the shielding. I'm going for a wire tuck. Added a new leather shift boot and bezel. Also HYDRA Boost! I'm in the middle of that right now. Things to come soon are: 8.8 rear swap, New seats and carpet (smells like an ashtray), New head liner with other interior bit, body work and hopefully before fall/winter I'll have my carbon-fiber and fiberglass work station ready to build custom pieces. Here's a sneak peek at a little project I've been working on my free time at work/home. Just need to think what other things I want to add to it. I want to use it as a mini HUD on my instrument cluster.

That dash setup looks like it will be pretty neat!

So I thought I'd share some Swedish porn. lol Here my next addition to my engine. I'm documenting the work on this and hopefully will have a good wright up after it's all said and done. I got a super sweet deal on this b234f head that someone had on the shelf. The gentlemen that I bought this from had a few of these heads modified. It already had stainless valves,seals,block welded with water/oil ports worked. I just need to clean some ports and get it mounted along with making intake and exhaust manifolds. Right now I'll be doing all the fitting and testing on the block you seen in the pictures. I will not be using that block. Its a stock DIS 92 block with a junk a4ld from the blue mustang.

I'm still working on the b234 head I got my new block in the works for it. I've been in the process of cleaning the block up and getting it ready for new bearing and pistons.My goal is to have it ready for this summer to swap in my blue mustang.

Sounds like a plan. Remember we sell Volvo head swap pistons for that application.

Haven't got too far. I've been busy on a few other projects but I'm really wanting to get back to it soon. I'm in the process of setting up a new shop to start fabricating parts. When that's done I can start making my manifolds for it and I'll be back on track.

Well I'm back from hiatus and I'm make progress on the b234f head swap finally. I just got my hands on an OEM volve intake to chop up and a yoshifab diy plenum to weld to it. Also got a turbo manifold too. My goals are to have this running over this fall.
