Looks like a radiator combo I installed in my 67 chevelle. (same look and style, not dimension wise) The fan blew like a hurricane, breeze felt like butterfly wings... I removed the fan, made an adapter to the shroud, and modified the ac cooling fan off an early 2000's Dodge truck. It cools much better. Just something to take note of, when the time comes...

meaning the fan that came with wasnt sufficient? It said 2600-2700 cfm for it so I figured it should be alright for my setup. Will find out soon enough. Thanks for the input.
Yes, that is what I meant, the fan. It sounded like it was flowing air, but it didn't really pull that hard. Reversing the rotation didn't help. It currently is residing on my wall of shame...
I got all these parts coming in so it should give me plenty to do between the 17th and 27th while I'm on leave, so hopefully a vast majority of it all is Here. Ended up making my own gauge panel and installing the guages and wiring.
When i comes to the two 50mm waste gates i went with the 50mm's because in past cases ive had boost creep issues due to insufficient waste gate size and not being able to get the gasses out. So two of these things running the 14psi springs should suffice.
I may catch flack for the headlight change, but lets face it, the intensity of the stock lights are absolutely *****. This is a driver and not a show car, so i want to see where I'm going at night for safety reasons. plus i think the housing along with the 6k hids will look nice in there. The red is the turn signal obviously.

This is an amazing build. I have a '73 Duster 318 car with a 360 Magnum swap that I bought when I was 15. Having never been a purist, and unhappy with engine transmission options/cost to keeping it all Mopar I've seriously been considering an LS swap. I've been waiting for a clean, detailed build to follow and get ideas.
Also: After owning this car for 27 years, trust me. You're going to want those subframe connectors!

pretty much my feeling except I've only owned it for 4 or 5 years. Never been a mopar purist and could care less about keeping it mopar. I spent alot of time researching the gen iv swap and had a side by side comparison of what it would cost me for both. LS Twin turbo won by being 1/4 of the price of a gen 3 hemi. I try to do things clean and make it right seeing as I'm OCD alot. But also because I know every mopar guy will try to nitpick it to death. Join the ls swapped mopar page on fb. I'm the admin for it. Lots of info there.

More goodies today, brake master cylinder, front pads, and the 90 degree fitting that will go onto the oil filter housing to redirect the feed lines for turbos. Still need to get the new powerstop rotors for up front and the all new brake lines for the whole car. But should be night and day better once it's all said and done.

Today was quite the busy day for the dart and I. I got the lower radiator hose sorted finally thanks to an idea that dawned on me when I was looking through all the rad hoses at autozone. I ended up using one of the radiator repair spacers and simply joined them together and rotated the other larger diameter house to meet the angle I needed so it wouldn't pinch or bind.
