Had a minor setback on plumbing the brakebooster. I got a completely different fluid cooler than the one pictured/described on summit. It'll actually work a lot better but I have the wrong AN adapters. Got everything but the return hooked up and then moved on to the engine.

The engine went together without any fuss. No really, just need to throw on my intake gaskets and it's pretty much done and ready to go back in. Spent most of my time with the gasket scraper cleaning up everything. Hopefully won't see any leaks.

Got the gf to take a shot of me in action for a change, turned out pretty good.

Shouldn't have any problems making it to the show at this point. Aiming to get the engine finished, tear all the brake stuff out and hopefully get everything but the headers back in next weekend. Gonna give the headers their own dedicated day to ruin for sure. I'm sure they won't disappoint. Hopefully might even get to log some hours one weekend of the 30th, we'll see.
