    good progress dude!

    i have a funny story about that cap off the trans. the first time I had to open it up, I was daily driving the car and I couldnt wait for that little plug. So I took a quarter, rtv, and duct tape. Put some rtv on one side of the quarter, pressed it onto the cap and secured it with duct tape and that mother fucker stayed together for like two years. lol

    I'd rather have the knowledge and ability to do it than the money to buy it already done.

    Lol I thought about going and finding a freeze plug that size. Or somehow fix the hole I punched into it. But decided to just wait for the new plug. I ordered two of them and they're coming from Texas or something since my stupid dealer couldn't find it in their system to order it.

    Now that I sat and thought about it. If I flatten the inside with a hammer so the metal is straight where I poked it with the screw driver then I can use jdweld and fill that hole and be good. There is a jdweld or an epoxy that's made for steel that holds up to heat and everything.

    Back on track. Got work done yesterday and today. Installed the clutch and flywheel and then mated engine and trans and dropped them in. Scratched the engine bay but oh well.

    Today I mounted the manifold and turbo and ran the power steering lines. Mounted the A/C condenser but going to the yard to get another one tomorrow along with a compressor

    Intercooler is also mounted.

    Got my evo8 stock fan from BJ today and modified it to fit the evo5 radiator. Cut all 4 tabs and rewelded them in the position I needed.

    Here it is installed on my ebay evo5 radiator
