Over the last few days we have been finishing up the EK project.  Everything is finished to the last detail, minus the exhuast connection.  As soon as the flange arrives it will be time for start up. 

   As soon as Kenny gets the new engine broke in we will take the car to my good friends at Cool Cars Inc and Adam and I will make the ac lines.  Heres some pics, thanks for watching.

It is a bit busy here but since he kept his heat not much could be done.  I also wrapped all the heater hose in nylon sleeve and heat shrinked the ends.  Came out pretty good I think.

Got something new in the shop.  Jeremy's nissan 240.  Tube front coming soon.

Car is just about done. Expect start up on friday.  Here are some pics. 

This spot worked out really well. Never seen one put here before. Thanks WireWorx.

Nylon sleeved and shrinked heater hose.

Factory harness entrance block off plate. Decided to integrate a bulkhead terminal for the charge harness. Worked out quite well.

Some All in Fab love.

   If you have a J swap or have had a j swap then you know about the problem with the hasport trans mount.  They sometimes have a tendency to break the trans case.  Especially those of you boosting and supercharging.  I have a solution for you. I can modify your mount bracket so that it will never break.  Its gone through 2 years of daily driving and many passes at the drag strip.  Its constructed out of 3/16 A36 steel and wraps around the back side of the case and bolts in place at the bottom.  On with the pics.

As you can see i added the tab with the extra 12mm bolt bolt to add some rigidity to that corner of the trans.  Especially since that is right where it likes to crack the case.

As you can see this trans case is broken in the typical spot.  Exactly what I am trying to prevent.

  In the last few days a ton of progress has been made on the Kenny's EK hatch.  So far we have installed, Wire-Worx wire harness,  the All in Fab tucked radiator condensor combo minus lines, dash, the remaining portions of the brake and wire tuck, reinstalled axles and passenger spindle(neede a bearing), engine acessories, and other misc.  Roughly 12-14 hours of work left and assembly will be complete. Then, start up and probobly a half a day in bleeding and burping, lol.  Heres some pics, enjoy.


You really cant beat the quality and craftsmanship of Derek Chorum's work.

The fitment on this is spot on.  It was a breeze to install.

Everything Xavier makes fits like a glove.  Hats off to Wire-Worx for another perfect harness.

I know its a little odd looking but it works out perfect for all the heater/ac box clearance.  Even reinstalled his firewall blanket since he is keeping all his climate control.

  Just another fun day in the shop.  Made a ton of progress on Kennys EK and installed a new Bride driver seat in Little Johnnys sexy rexy.  Also got the timing belt job done on the CB7 family car.  Here's a few pics.

John's CRX

 Monica's CB7 

  After today the Maverick is almost done.  Got the driver and passenger rear corners of the bay boxed.  Also Cut the massive and ugly brackets of the top of the front support.  gonna weld it up solid and add gussetts undernieth to compensate.

  Also managed to get Kenny's engine installed in the EK as well today.

  Here are a few pics of all the progress.

The Maverick

Kenny's EK

  Yes, you read the title correctly, a Ford Maverick.  Took a second look huh, lol.  This past wednesday this car arrived at the shop.  It came all the way from Orlando and we are setting our sights on the cleanest Maverick bay in zee woorld, lol.

  This car will be getting our FULL shave.  Everything will be boxed and plated.  After the metal work is done she will go to Rogue Auto Werks for the bay finish work.  Also Expect our good friends at Wire-Worx to have a hand in this as well. 

  Today we got off to a pretty good start. Got some holes filled, some plates made and got quite a bit of the welding done.  First Ill show you what the car looked like before this porject started.  After that, our progress.  Enjoy!

Not your run of the mill Maverick for sure.

When it arrived.

Now time for the fun stuff.
