OK, making progress.
The brakes are now bled and there are no leaks.
The Iridium plugs are gapped and installed.
The Base fule setting has been adjusted to lean it out a bit as the car idled at 8 on the gauge.
I have the 20" iForged wheels test fit on the car and they clear the big brakes and look fantastic. Lips come right to the edges of the wheel wells.
Tires are being ordered (Falkens), fantastic tires.
The fuel pumps have been rewired to the Autronic SM4 so it will control them. Each one is on a separate pin, so I have set 1 up as a primary, and the second to come on at 10 lbs of boost.
I will finish up rewiring the Innovate Lambda unit into the Autronic SM4 for accurate tuning this weekend.
The faceplate for the gauge pod was redone in matching burlwood, and is being reinstalled this weekend back into the car.
Just about ready to put the interior back in the car.
I will keep you posted.

Scott, here's the pics you requested:

Perfect flush fitment to the edge of the rear wheel well:
I bought these two-piece iForged wheels used, and with various curb rash and they were very dirty. I was told they were high polished, that was incorrect. They were chromed on both the face and the lips. I sent them out to be refurbished, I had the curb rash repaired, the chrome removed from the lips only, and the rest of each wheel was thoroughly cleaned and the lips professionally polished. Thanks to David from Like Chrome Polishing in Orlando for cleaning and polishing the wheels, he restored them to almost new again. Thanks also to Olympits for repairing the curb rash on the wheels.
Notice the fitment of the wheels. The front and rear wheels fit to the edge of the wheel wells. Perfect flush fitment. They also clear the Wilwood Big Brakes with no spacers needed.
