Sick Build! being a turbo/stick guy myself, I love it!
however, I think you should re consider the clutch choice. I recomend you give Cale Aronson a call, he is a racecar clutch guru, he'll steer you in the right direction. He will give you advice even if you dont buy stuff from him

thanks. monsters been nothing but great to me im gonna stick with them i believe i can make it work even with a hard hitting clutch. ive been 1.29 60' on the old setup and twin. i know there will be a learing curve with this setup but we will figure it out. plus this will see some street time. and if lsx series would allow e85 it would see alot of street time, but for now its staying on renegade 120

more fab work getting done.

moved my chute release handle



building the new steering shaft.



bracing the firewall a bit.



adding some gussets to the front frame work.



starting on the firewall.









getting it put back together, firewall is still in the stock location just extended straight up to the windshield to eliminate the cowl and clearanced in the middle for the intake to be turned backwards. motor is in factory location.











made a new catch can with some extra 5" pipe we had.



finished firewall turned out awesome.

Holy **** dude this is awesome. Always loved your car being a T56 guy and love that you are going turbo. This is exactly how I would have done my build if I wasn't a poor college kid. Hahaha
