As your fabrication skills are far greater than mine I'm just wondering weather you are going for a standard gear linkage or and internal? It's something I'm looking at doing but not seen any decent images or diagrams of any done.?

Dude this is insane, I just got my b18 mini finished up just over a month ago and that's quick as hell just how it is.

I cant even become to comprehend what this is going to be like, will be watching.

Good luck! :)

I'm dreading to think how long this is going to be before finished lol plans have changed so much since the start and so has the cost lol If I was doing a standard conversion it prob would be finished now haha but will hopefully be worth the blood sweat and tears :)

Have you tried the front end on yet? Any photos ? I'm doing a b16 turbo also with a similar manifold but I don't want it visible or to deform the front end to look silly.
