Intake is ready for powder coat. Radiator is almost ready to install. Hopefully will be able to secure lift access for my fabricator to mess with the turbo fitment to seal that exhaust leak and re-do my oil drain.

With all that done, it should be ready for the dyno. I don't like the slight dampness I see on the top of piston 2, but could just be oil or something. Will probably do a compression test/coolant test to check head gasket status before the dyno, but will definitely be working on acquiring and building another engine to have on standby, this one being ported significantly and painted all nice with the better oil pump etc.
