My Porsharu starts to take shape

I've gone through my engine and Porsche 901 transmission (both low mileage) with new seals, etc. So today I put the adapter plate, flywheel, pressure plate, and clutch disc on and mated them together. I've left off the intake manifold and throttle body as I'm thinking I will need to flip it around to fit in the engine bay in my Porsche 914. I'm not running power steering or ac so I'll just need to get my alternator in there somehow. My work is keeping me swamped but I'm going to slide the engine/tranny under my body shell and check out the clearance in the next couple of days. I'll post some more pic's with the eg33 in the 914 body. Any tips?

P.S. Kent, if you were on the east coast, I'd organize a meet to drive out to your place and see this project in action!

Check out this page of a '74 914: http://pages.infinit.net/fpa4/M/914.htm

From the factory, the car weighed 970kg or roughly 2100lbs!!!
