No build thread sorry. I can get some pics for you if you need. I did almost exactly what your doing minus the blower. I went with a glide. Narrowed 8.8 alloy axles and caltracs. Holley HP. Worth every penny for the HP system. I flipped the truck headers forward to go with turbo. But no turbo yet till I get a cage in it.

Not sure if I missed it reading but what valve covers are those u have? I really like the look of them? Also do they work with d585 truck coils?

I have the LS round coils on the car now, but I've got a set of squares with the heat sinks I'm going to try out.
