Unfortunately I never took pics of my engine in the car. All I have is pics of it before I put it in, after I painted it.

Actually I take that back, I just found some, hold on.

wow thats the first time ive seen the IC piping ran between the block and fan.... i was wondering if i'd be able to pull that one off, guess so... what did you mount the FMIC to anyways?

edit: do you have an electric fan on the radiator i cant tell, it sorta looks like you do but it also looks liek the stock fan shroud...

It's an electric fan. The IC is just mounted to a simple bracket at the bottom.

OMG!!!! veynel i just realized you dont have coil on plug but you still have the distributorless 3 coilpack setup.... i want that! lol. you have megasquirt or what just curious how you did that.... and im starting my megasquirt research... seems pretty straight forward other than the CAS hookup... an i could never solder circuit boards so i need a pre-built one, and i dotn know if i'd want a relay board from them or just the wire harness....
