How are you going to reduce the extra air pressure generated by the turbo's?

Some more progress. Gates are placed. Got driver side gate dump done. Got my Bradco 10" bolt together converter in so I mounted my BTE TH400 with RMVB and a brake. Used a AJE tranny crossmember and it all bolted right up. Started the driver side down pipe. Not too bad fit but will have to go on and off from the bottom. Exhaust will be straight through and run through a x-pipe right into polished straight tips rear exit. Also got a guy working on some new edge 5.0 style fender emblems but 6.0 instead. Should really confuse some people when done.

Mucsle car pan from summit. Only about 169 with pan,gasket, pickup, windage tray, and bolts. The 6.0 truck pan would have fit if you wanted.

Talk about some tight space.

Any worries about baking paint on the inner fender structure? Are you wrapping the downpipes?

Btw looks great. Super clean work man

All fab work complete just finishing up the exhaust mid pipes. This is the engine bay before it goes in to paint for some more detail. Down pipes are double wrapped in black. And had these 6.0 badges made chrome and mirror black modeled after the new 5.0 design. Gonna have to see them on car before I decide which I will use.
