I ran across some old pics of when I was doing the swap! Not sure where to post them, but here they are. If this thread needs to be moved, feel free.
That's exactly how my car looks now.
Mods?
It's stock....
KL... huh? ZE?? WTF is that?
This one might be my favorite
So! haha, I've gotten so many people to race me thinking my car is stock. Anybody else with photos?
Ran across these the other day!

There are those who claim to be street racers, and then there are those who claim the streets for themselves. I am not a street racer. I am a StreetSweeper.

Nice car. I can see where people might be caught by surprise.
Also (this is kind of off-topic), I notice you have wrap on the headers, too. Almost nobody on the probe forums do that so its hard to get info. I was kind of wondering, can you actually tell a difference in engine bay temp with that on there?

Yes I can. Alot of people say not to use it, but as small as the Mx3 engine bay is, and considering how heat soaked the engine is already, anything you can do is a help. Since I wrapped the headers and added phenolic spacers, underhood temps have dropped dramatically, as has the intake air temp.

I did mine by myself or was one of two people working on it. Perry took most of the swap pics and only on one day so I don't have many. Anyway, here they are in all there oldness. The swap was done about 4-5 years ago.
Motor prep
Just sat it in and hooked a few things up.
As it sits now.
Aweful day for pics, but a neat shot.
Probably my favorite shot, taken a few weeks ago on the way to a Auto-X at Turner Field.

Those headlights are awesome! Did you make those or buy them somewhere?
