My f-body turbo project (pics) Here are some pictures of the f-body I am building for a class at our local strip. I started this about a year ago. Unfortunately, the economy didn't allow me to get much done until just recently. Let me know what you guys think.

Here's a pic of the turbo and the paint we are going with.
Special thanks to Matchstick (a fellow LS1tech member) I would have never gotten this far without all your help.

If the rear kickers aren't welded in yet, I would move them to right next to the spring/shock mount. That's the part of the rear that needs the most support. Other than that looks great

Thanks for the words guys! It's been a long road but were getting there.
The engine is nothing real special at the moment; stock bottom end, Victor Jr intake, fuel rails and Fast stand alone. I'm gonna concentrate on getting the rest of the car done and then throw some money at the motor over the winter.
The turbo is a Precision GT 42/76 with Turbonetics Newgen wastegate and BOV. We're using truck manifolds and are a couple of weeks away from sending it out to the fabricator to have the piping done.
Getting closer, but still an awful long ways away.
