going to try and drop her in tonight... praying it will work with everything mounted, will save a TON of time and aggravation of installing the turbos again. i dropped the cradle completely out of the way so I'm thinking it should work out just fine. wish me luck!
i have pretty much everything installed on the engine.. ac compressor, starter, turbos etc..

well it worked! went from having a car 0% complete to one that is 70% complete in about 2hrs with help from one person. we even bleed the clutch in that time.. I'm so happy it worked out but now I'm worried as it almost went to easy lol.

Great work, awesome to know you can put the motor in with the turbos on. Is that the proper clocking of the turbos as well? If so thanks for showing the proper location lol.

thanks guys, i have the day off today so i plan on knocking out quite a bit.
when we took them apart i was worried about them being clocked right when i put them back together but after getting the engine back in the car they are exactly 100% clocked the right way, so I'm extremely happy with that aswel. this saved so much time
