go to the custom radiator form, and it will give you the list of core sizes and options.
Mine was less than $275!

Well the 4" was just not going to fit easily, so I picked up some 3.5", and got the DP out past the bellhousing. Welds are kinda crappy on some of it as I was at the end of the tank of gas.
Still trying to decide if I want to dump the wastegate or just route it back in.
Thoughts?

Since when is it half *** to not route it back in? It's called "personal preference". It's neither right nor wrong. My post about dumping it was a joke anyway. You make it sound like it's ridiculously loud and annoying if it's dumped though. Once again, personal preference.

When my gate opens on my 7.3 it is LOUD and it's routed back through the exhuast. I couldn't imagine an LS motor although I've never heard one dumped

Hahahaha
Its not going to take much to route it back in if I decide to go that way.
I'm really more worried about tieing the two frame rails back together in some manner.
I suppose I could just get a piece of 2" and weld it between them, behind the radiator, but I was really hoping to find a cleaner alternative that still helped with structural integrity. I'd love to have a tubing bender - I'd make something swoopy and pretty.... but I don't.

I used square tube to tie mine together. No biggy, look fine.

Got a little done last night despite spending an hour and a half snowblowing 
Hot side painted
And wrapped. Just cheapo black FG wrap from siliconeintakes.com. Double wrapped with 50% overlap on crossover. Used 50' of 1" on the one manifold, need to buy more.
