Nice try! I got a few more things done but for 15k it will have to be as is.

Haha truth

I reckon they'll be normal surface cracks on the aluminium casting and nothing to worry about.

If you want peace of mind. Get someone who does NDT and have them dye-check it.

NDT - non-destructive testing

New update. Was about to finish installing the engine but the driver side inlet didn't clear one of the AC lines

so i will have to cut it in half just like the passenger side.

All things considered, I'd say that's not too bad!

Yeah i agree but it's been one tiny problem after another haha so it has delayed me a lot.

I finally got it back on today and hoping to have a helping hand so i can drop the engine back in tonight.

Looks awesome husam. A bit surprised you didn't drop the turbos into the new Camaro, seeing as you are a huge fan of the Camaro

Yeah unfortunately i couldn't afford the 1LE so i had to settle with spending 1/2 of it's cost including the turbos

My question is, why didn't Nissan do this? Build looks great, can't wait to see a dyno sheet!

My guess is they didn't want to undercut the GTR.

I sometimes daydream that maybe a very special person at Nissan with enough pull had a 370z made like this
