Project Undercover Scotia - 81 242DL

For those of you that came to the BBQ at the shop, you saw what I have been working on. For those who were not there, I figured I would post a project thread as I will be adding more to this car as the summer continues. I built the bulk of this project in the 3-4 weeks prior to RSIPD weekend.

25mm adapters

Inside (needs to be completed):
Kirky seat
AEM wideband
late model blue interior for the rest of the seats
navy flocked dash
decent small stereo setup

I built/am building this car to be a fun summer canyon carving car and to show off some products for the shop.

When I got the car on April 15th:

Nice project!

Looks awesome! Really like the wheels, what are they?
Keep up with the good work and post more pics!

That thing is gorgeous!(...or some other more manly term of your choosing....)

Not in love with the wheels, but other than that I really dig it. The engine bay looks really well done.

Is the head stock apart from the shave and the cam?

I like it. So how much $$$$ does it take to get those type of results?

You guys must have the happiest cad plating shop on earth!

Looks great Asher!

Damn. What's the compression?

Head has been just lightly cleaned up and CR is 12.5-13:1 iirc.

The wheels are BMW Style 42 (BBS RS 740).

Sweet. Should make good power. E85 only or...?

Was run on E85 in a previous setup....going to see if I can work out a real real real conservative pump spark map...I am trying to drive this to leavenworth in a few weeks.

Lookin real good Asher! Needs a GT airdam.

needs a group a front end swap and some fresh paint on the outside.

You get work done really fast. It looks great to me. Crazy how much a different set of wheels and being lower does for a car.

Cool.

Now crush it.
