BTW in case you didn't find out yet the OEM part for the engine cover I'm 90% sure it's was the OEM TOP engine cover for a 987, they just pounded it down to shape. It's about 1-200 bucks online. They said it even matches up to some bolt holes!

You are welcome and good luck! I'll check into that cover once we get this bad boy moving on its own!!

You are very welcome too! PM replied to~ I think that everyone should have a V8 Boxster so just let me know if I can help!

1.18.15 Update -

Greetings all,

Been a crazy week so not much progress, I wanted to get the motor test fit this weekend but we got unusually busy at the shop this week so it may have to wait. Finally had some time to get the wiring onto the motor and sorted a bit better. Since the intake manifold got swapped backwards there are some critical bits of the wiring harness that no longer reach where they need. Luckily Chevy decided to use a split loom for the harness so after lots of removal of electrical tape I was able to get the wires where they needed to be. Also when you are taping it back up - THIS IS NOT THE TIME FOR CHEAP ELECTRICAL TAPE!! Go out and buy some good Scotch/3M tape and you will be much happier with the results!

Also got my harmonic balancer space from Renegade which they ended up sending at no additional cost - YAY!!! THANKS RENEGADE!!!

Did a few quick videos on the wiring, here is the first and a second is on its way:

Plus a few pics including part of the reason I can't get to the car so easily - had a true "barn find" dropped off on us yesterday - a bahama yellow 1970 911T!

Thanks!
John
