Alright, I'll be "that guy". I don't see any of the following on the lists above: Shop air filtrationRespirator/masks, face shields/eye protection, gloves (PPE in general)Vacuum/cleanup (some people spend tons of effort and money on plumbing air, and nothing on plumbing vac for some reason)Fire...
It's not "just a swap", although since you have a donor car, you've got most of what you need. Basically: long-block (plus I/C, piping, etc), turbo ECU, and wiring for the knock sensor.(A lot of folks will have the idea that this is a harder swap than it is, because they assume you have a...
I just finalized an apartment in Alameda, although with the Evo basically neutered, I'm not very worried about getting attention from the police. Now that I finally have a few days to rest, I can deal with some leftover ECU issues from reinstalling all the damn emissions hardware and get...

I have an HF 20-ton press, and it's more than paid for itself (especially since I managed to catch it during a 50%-off sale). I'd expect those 6-ton bench presses to be fine for bushings; in most cases, alignment of press to material has mattered more than ultimate pressure for me.
The ducting you've settled on looks a lot like what AMS did with their Evo X, although they had considerably more room to work with, especially after doing a tilted mount for the FMIC/radiator:Here are some pics of the latest progress we've made on our Time Attack Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution...
