You'll have to give Josh a day or two to get to this, he's one of the guys involved with the Monster Mopar Weekend this weekend

I did just get back from putting on Monster Mopar Weekend. Sorry for the delayed response

The motor plate was a square blank that I drew a radius on and cut out with a band saw and cleaned up with a dynafile. I got my blank from Mike Roth at MR2 performance (765) 483-9371

I do have a few updates but we have been working on the underside of the car and are just now starting headers.

We have a prototype set of the Header flanges from Brian Smith. What an awesome piece.

We had to get some 1 7/8 centerline radius tubes for the primaries and they will be here tomorrow. Hope to give more frequent updates now.

Glad they fit well Josh. I placed an order with my machine shop Tuesday for 6 sets in the 1 7/8" primary size. They will be in stock in 4 to 5 weeks. If anyone wants to claim a set (no need to send $) just let me know and you will be one of the first to have them. PM me if you need pricing info. They will only be available in stainless steel unless I get enough interest to justify an order of mild steel flanges.

Update on things please...

I may have missed this, but is this a Mopar block or another manufacturer?

Thanks!

Awesome build. Did Billy Gilsbach up here in Michigan stretch the rear wheels opening on this car along with some other updates at one time? If so, I remember seeing it in his old shop many years ago.

You are thinking of Tonys duster that used to run KOS. That's a different car although one of my favorites.

That car is still in Detroit owned by Tony Masconi It's painted and has a demon tail panel in it now. I think it's blue or purple.

No updates lately. My fabricator has been really busy with his day job as he runs the fab shop at DSR

We haven't made much progress until the last few weeks. I had decided to finish the inside of my barn and we moved the car from my friends house back to my place.

Headers are done turbos are mounted in place

How did you determine engine position,did you place it where it best suits for component location or use the standard mounting location on the crossmember or transmission mount?
