Been a while. Project vortech coming along, Gonna burn some left-over leave at work and help the Mrs who had a knee scope yesterday that seemed to go well. Next am going to try and get the UPR boostmaster tube fitted so that will include Maff-IAT-filter-bypass hose-oil vent hose all secured under the fender ie. Fab a support bracket while re-fitting the inner fender plastic well. The Pro-M is so long. Lastly installing the MSD ignition retard system mounting/wiring and the boost Guage-pillar pod retard knob in the cabin. Some pics from last week and have made a couple days work progress since I took these.

Pulled the car into the garage out of the cold wind to find the source of the loud squeaky noise at cold start and periodically after....Hoped it would just be an idler or tensioner pulley. Nope. Can't be that easy. Water pump. Previous owner put an aluminum pulley on the water pump. It clearly has a groove worn in it from the belt. Not a huge deal.
Even better news, though. Short version to leave out all the theatrics....
Steering rack is puking fluid out of the driver's side seal.

Yay!.
After the wife's ER visit last night, this isn't what I wanted to see.

Screw the car, I hope she’s doing better.
