i may ask around if someone can make a bracket assuming bracket is the only difference btw svt and st.
Sure Leo... They're under my bed in a tote lol I'll dig em out tonight and snap a quick photo...

i got some good news!!
me and my 2 friends rented shop space for $1000 per month, hoist, utilities and tools(air compressor, press tools, tire mount/balance) are included for us to use without paying extra!
i am so excited. i can even offer some small job such as 12volt accessory(remote starter, keyless entry, power lock, headunit and etc).
That's great news Leo. Now you can vacate that parking garage and get on to some real work. I'll probably have a remote start for you to install once I get some new wheels.
yes yes, it will make the job done quick!

now i can
-drop fuel tank and replace fuel pump.
-cut off exhaust tail pipe and remount up higher
-cut around rebar to make fit better
-drop engine in will be so much easier
-do whole rear suspension swap
-bodywork!

come stop by and get your remote starter done lol
Lucky!!!!!!
Thats great news Leo, Good for you

Any update with engine progress ?
unfortunately, not much,
