Actually it's an FD waterpump assembly

You'll see why I went this route when I get some pics of the HMIC system up. It works oh so well and looks OH so sexy

Thanks... Now I just need to get it in the car..... actually I need to get some stuff on the car. It hasn't changed in a week. Kinda depressing.

No, I am. I just tapped the opening off for paint. I actually stabbed the CAS tonight as well as
Finished the end float
Installed the Front Cover
Finished the turbos
Finished the fuel
Got the UIM mounted
Modified and Installed the Oil Pan.
Left is to powdercoat all the springs on the TB and assemble it, put the motor mounts on, finish the mounting for the coils, but I can't do that until the motor is swinging........ oh, dissasemble and powdercoat an Alt.... Yeah, trying not to miss any detail. Hopefully it doesn't keep me from actually attending DGRR.... um - new used wheels will be here tomorrow. Need to refinish them which will take about a week probably..... Anyone wanna come help out this weekend? Free beer.
So yeah, I cut off the drain plug and welded on a -10AN bung. No more changine gaskets and no more drain plug leaks for me! And with the Banzai Brace there shouldn't be any leaks, and if there are, they'll be easy to spot because I powdercoated the pan Plantnium SIlver. I would've liked to have painted it, but I used the last of the paint last night on the Pre-spool, wastegate, and turbo control actuator.
