    Thanks for the help last night Stack. Helping with the inventory gives me more confidence moving forward. I should be able to finish my inventory this weekend and start with moving the body and removing the panels on the chassis.

    Picked up Powder coated panels this week and they look great.
    Installed front end steering and brakes with the help of Stack. Thanks buddy.

    Also installed rear end and got rear two tires delivered yesterday. Waiting for the front tires from Summit. Then will have them mounted.

    Making good progress.

    Ron, you might want to open a new thread in the "Build Threads". It will get quite a bit more attention and comments over there vs Intros.

    That sounds like a good idea to move to build threads.

    Thanks

    Im a FACTORY FIVE OWNER. SOOO Ready for stage 1. One at a time for my busy schedule. Should get delivery in 5 more weeks. My name is Scott and I have been researching Factory Five and BluePrint engines for many months. Now my budget is tight so I will start with stage 1, then motor hopefully from Blueprint engines and off to stage 2. One thing about all this is I LOVE this forum. Lots of great people who know and have built the 33 in this forum and Im excited to be a part of it. Im not sure how to navigate to well but I will figure it out.

    Have not updated in a while but will be doing my first engine start in a couple of days.

    Coyote fills the engine compartment to the max and had a dickens of a time installing the drivers side header but finally got it.

    Thanks for moving this thread David.

    Well I'm shooting to have the first engine start tomorrow morning. Putting fluids in at 8:00 and doing final checks after that then we should hear some sweet rumbling from the coyote
