Thank you
There is a dimensional drawing in the instructions.

I'll be waiting for your results. I'm waffling using this setup on my 15' SS. All of the Aussie turbo kits don't account for the rack. :/

I really wish this kit came with a driver's side log option. I'll likely end up buying it regardless and making it work. It saves so much time in fab work that it's a ridiculous bargain.

I just measured my G8 Gt stock manifold and from the head/flange to the outside the of the manifold from the head on the back port is 2.75" and the 2nd from the back and second from the front is 2.5". Can you work with those measurements?

Thanks

Does anyone know if this will fit the 82-92 firebird/camaro? That pass side manifold looks like it might hit the kmember spring perch/motor mount. It's a nice setup and I'm looking at mine right now and I have 5 3/4" from the top edge of my kmember to the first header bolt front pass side. Can anyone take a measurement? How far does that bottom edge go down in relation to the manifold bolts?

Are you supporting the turbo with anything else?

We are cnc'ing a 1/4" plate to replace the mockup brace you can see on the front of the head. There will also be a support rod tied into the bracket on the downpipe.

M Minnick,
WOW. Bad *** build. Please do a thread on your car here in Conversions section. What is the name on the badge that's on the IC? Is there another turbo support besides the single bolt CNC turbo brace you pointed out?

thanks,
Jim

8513HKR- T56/T56 Magnum with Quicktime bellhousing
8514HKR- Powerglide, TH350, TH400, 2004R, 700R4 and TKO 500/600 with Quicktime bellhousing
8515HKR- 4L60-4L70, 4L80/4L85
8516HKR- T56/T56 Magnum with stock aluminum bellhousing, 6L80
I like this 8515HKR- 4L60-4L70, 4L80/4L85 on my 99WS6

Finally made it to the dyno the other day. Final pull was 842rwhp@6700rpm on 22psi/15°timing. This was on a Mustang dyno, fuel numbers show around 1050fwhp.
Combo is SBE 5.3, S485, LJMS cam, ProFlo intake, E85, TH400, 9".
Other runs were:
774rwhp on 19psi
637rwhp on 11psi.
Still have more boost/rpm to play with, but the TH400 is already not happy.
