Hey EG is that a T1 sway bar?? It looks like its going to be in the way a little with the charge tube coming off the supercharger. You might want to call Doug and ask him what they have done with T1 bars. From your pic it looks like its going to be a tight fit between the bar and the cradle where the tube goes......

It will be a very tight fit and yes, those are T1 sways (to go with the DRM coilovers)

Hang on! Now what camera did you use to take the picture of the camera!?? E.G. you are not only a beloved fixture on this website and an incredible mechanic, you are also MAGICAL.

Either that, or you have two digital cameras!

I really enjoyed seeing the teardown pics. It was good seeing the skid bar removed (I'd like to replace mine because a PO bunged up one side pretty good). And yeah, the coolant picture was cool!
