I figured I will make this my main build thread. I will post periodic updates to the progress of the car to let everyone know.

I bought the shell with the blown motor in Houston, TX... I shipped the car straight to Kustomz Unlimited in the Dallas TX area to get my Accuair Air Ride and wheels fitted. (Thanks to Lycca for the TEIN CST hookup) They do great work and I would highly recommend them to anyone local or not local. Once my install here is done then I shall ship the car back to Atlanta and get it painted.
Once paint is done then we shall be bolting down the motor and hopefully get all the wiring done..

Started tearing down the motor yesterday. Pretty much have all the accessories removed. Still have to remove the crank pulley, cam gears, waterpump, camshafts and etc. Once done we will be taking the head off to a shop to get worked on.
Below is a quick video of me messing with Joe while he was highly focused and frustrated.. lol
