I'm pretty eager to see how the TBs and intake arms will fit, and crossing my fingers that with the plenum and engine cover in place the factory strut brace would still fit.

I am with youn on this dude :happydance:

UPDATE:

Just got off the phone with Sam over at GTM. The motor was broken back down and all the parts including the oil pump got a new type of coating/treatment. Sam did some digging and found some issues within the VQ platform that could have lead to a failure in the long term. I want to say thank you to Sam for going the extra mile to make sure my parts will last a long time. Sam has spent a great deal of detail on this build and is really working himself to the bone trying to get the car ready for its magazine cover shoot! The Motor will be installed back in the car this week and the finalizing of the install should be finished by the end of next week hopefully. Then its on to tuning and getting this bad puppy on the road!!!

Again I want to thank Sam and his crew as they are working nights and weekends to get everyone taken care of. If you talk to Sam on the phone he may sound tired... well thats because he doesn't sleep! thats right this guy is pulling all nighters to make sure everyone's projects are to get done on time! So if you are waiting on parts or are waiting on your build to be finished just be PATIENT as Sam and his entire crew are working to the bone to deliver you the top quality parts and builds you expect. Sam and crew are NOT willing to let a product or build go out the door like other companies that will not live up to its goals.

Stay tuned for more updates...

Sweet! Amazing work! I'd like to see a sticky WIKI-like thread about the VQ37 platform, findings, etc... of course, I don't think Sam can do this alone haha.

I agree this would be great and would answer many peoples questions if they would take the time to read it. I am trying to help Sam as much as I possibly can from my side. I wish I could take several days maybe even a week or two and help with my build so he could get a break... Yeah, I think the findings in this thread will benefit our community for years to come. Sam is at the forefront of VQ technology and outside of the designer of the VQ37 I dont think anyone has as much knowledge or insight into this platform as Sam. :tup:

Can you just tell us if it fits or not?? I know the strut cant be tested with this setup until the engine is in the car.
