Such a beautiful build! Thanks for the info on the AC bracket!
From the earlier pictures, It looks like the lower AC compressor port is headed straight for the frame. Was there any extra clearance needed to get a fitting onto it or were you able to use the same 90 degree fitting on it as you did the upper connection. (Below picture for reference) Any lead on those 90 degree fittings? All I've seen are elbows. Definitely interested in the braided AC lines you're using also!
We have never pushed it past 26lbs of boost. I don't think the connecting rods would take too much more that 1,000 hp.
High boost puts it just shy of 1,000 to the wheels. Too much for the car either way...

This is one of my favorite build of all time. I've been around for a little while too. Nice job, what a great car and craftsmanship. I can't wait to see what's next.
Looks awesome! And wow on the power end. Just amazing. Curious ....Can you tune boost electronically or do you have manual control valves?
Am I the only one finding the irony in making aluminum resemble plastic?
Not being critical and understand why. Just thought it funny.
Well, I did install it initially as brushed aluminum, but it really looked out of place. I thought either satin or wrinkle black would look more factory(ish).
On the boost controller. It it a TurboSmart dual statege manual controller http://www.americanmuscle.com/turbos...ontroller.html
To answer an earlier question about the A/C compressor.
The compressor has 90 degree fittings and plenty of space in the frame notch. probably at least an inch clearance.
I got one of those android based stereos in my Regal, got it to run Shadowdash but I cant put in my registration key number. They are currently trying to come up with a solution to get it to work...
