I can't post progress chronologically. There are too many moving parts. I'm simultaneously working on the engine, the body, the interior, and the electrical system.

For example, I worked on the engine while the car was in the body shop until I got to the point where there were a few parts I needed for it. Placed the parts order and worked on the wiring for a while, then the body came back, I worked on assembling it until I racked up a decent sized parts order, went back to the engine, then to the electrics, back to the body, etc etc etc.

Sorry to disappoint, but no, no supercharged engine. In fact, I'm doing my best to go back to bone stock on the engine.
