Decided to change up the motor build for this. Instead of the freshly ringed and gasketed stocker, I will run:
fresh tanked and machined block, .020 over
Wiseco .020 pistons
Eagle Rods (balanced with pistons)
fresh crank
BSE (I am a huge fan of Balance shafts, but what the heck)
Ported and polished head
272 cams
ARP head studs
Will still be running the stock VR4 FMIC and exhaust for the winter, then the summer will see the new FMIC and exhaust
It is over-kill for my build expectations of sticking with the e316g forever and such, but could not pass up the trade. (Trading for my 93 Summit AWD Auto wagon)

Well, I managed to eeek out a Rebuilt title from the Indiana BMV!!! So the build can go forth!! I found hail-damage on the roof and trunk, I think that is why it was totaled in the past so a rebuilt title is the best I could do.
The motor build has changed a bit as I now have the parts and now know what they are exactly:
.020 bored and machined stock block
.020 9.0:1 Wiseco pistons
Tool Steel wrist pins
Eagle H-Beam rods
un-cut polished stock crank
ARP L19 headstuds
-----All the above picked up on a trade for a 93 Auto AWD Summit wagon, good trade------
polished/ported head
272/272 cams
new 3g lifters
Had new bearings installed in the front 5-lug hubs so I will finish the 5-lug swap

Saturday was in the Mid 40's, nice and warm for driveway work!!! Went to work on getting the dash installed:
Pulled the dash to install the vent system. Found this on the heater core when I removed the semi installed dash:
 The heater core did not work properly, was unable to redirect air since the knob would not move. I found the core was filled with AT LEAST a bunch of acorns, maybe the body of the snake was there too. So, I installed a new core.
Install complete:
 Only issue I found were following wires, no idea where they should go:
These are from under the steering wheel:
 These coming from the center console area:
 This is where the ECU goes:
 And this wire. No place for it to go to in the harness:
 Anyone know what I can use to mount the speedo cable? there is no clip to hold it in place in the gauge cluster mount?
Also found these mounts in the trunk. Are any of these for the gvr4?

LOL, I grew up in Arizona, played with many a snake, but I was really cautious. That is why I replaced the heater core, don't need any snake issues like Chapell had in Gone in 60 Seconds. Quoting Wolfpuss:
Damm, I would have called it quits when I saw the snake skin (I hate snakes)
Keep up the good work OP!

Also, in the following images (from the top): - 3rd Image is more than likely a portion of a turbo timer harness *You can go ahead and remove it and reconnect your factory harness. You'll see what I mean when you remove the panel below the steering wheel. - 5th Image that circuit is taped exposed (not connected) to the factory engine management portion i.e. ECU connector loom - 6th Image Courtesy of Muskrat:  Also, you can Consult Chapter 13 (Fuel) of the Factory Service Manual Volume 1 for additional reference.
