Ok i will try and post as many pics as possible. I have a 2000 v6 formula I pulled apart bought a built lq4 from a vendor. That would have been plenty, but decided my wife needed more power lol. Side note this is my wifes weekend car.

I went with a th350 because I already had one out of another car

Then I started searching for a turbo kit because well why not. Well after a couple months of searching I decided on a rear mount because I was building it for the wife and wanted to keep a/c and also always wanted to learn how to weld. So i bought some stock ls1 manifolds and flanges and built a y pipe after many mess up. Side note it will be coated and wrapped before final install.

then for the quest of more room read about standing the radiator up. So figured why not lol.
