Added a few new pics well they are a from a while back as I built the cooling system, chute mount, and final turbo placement. My new trans arrived today going to rebuild the trans mount this weekend and get it bolted in also trying to get up the courage to cut a 5" hole in the fender for the exhaust we shall see how that works out LOL.

Been a while! Switched a few more things around on the car got the glide and new PTC 9.5" converter installed waiting on the new Strange driveshaft to show up. Reworked the hotside some and installed a Precsion 66mm wastgate. Ran the exhaust out the passenger fender after staring at it for a few hours LOL!
Working on finishing up the Holley wiring now looks as though we will be ready for the dyno right after Christmas as every part other than the driveshaft and injectors is in the garage to complete the car! I will post a few updated pics this weekend.

It has been a long time coming almost 3 years!

Good job on laying a beatdown on the cancer.

Now you can use that great looking Deuce to lay a beatdown on the Ford boys. Mopars too. Car looks awesome.

It is a precsion metal craft intake super high quality piece, there are many knock offs running around the net that look like it but are of low quality and poor internal design.

Thanks guys for the well wishes, I am lucky and thank god for every day it could have turned out much different.

Glad to hear you're okay. If you can beat cancer, nothing else will stand in your way.

I am in Ardmore right on the TN/AL line at I 65.
Not going to make Memphis I am trying to be ready for radial fest at Huntsville May 1st so need to finish tuning this weekend and get ready to make some test hits the next weekend.

Thanks everyone for the well wishes, it was a long road and really put me behind getting my car finished but I am thankful I was able to make a 100% recovery a lot of people don't get a second chance.
