Picked up a de-powered steering rack from MiataSource. Well worth it. No experience as a welder and couldn't be bothered to try doing it myself

Tried out paint the raised letters on the valve cover for cool points. Looks amazing, but I should have used a better matte coat. It gets ruin in oil very quickly

Had the same issue as many others with low mount setups. I ended up just cutting off the 90 degree elbow and using the molded line that Kraken supplied in his kit. Fit great

Cleaned up the head as well as had them check for warping/cracks. Valve seals were all replaced with OEM along with any parts that needed attention

First work with the new motor was to install the ARP head studs. Made sure to get a cleaner tap and get the threads prepped before installing
