Well where to begin!

Got the engine and trans mated up


Wrapped my manifolds


Everything installed ready to go back in the bay


I fabbed up some mounts for the accusump


Then i got a hair up my *** and wanted a side exit exhaust





Can't have a clean engine going into a dirty bay, so i resprayed it



Engine installed..... but with the side exit, this kinda forced me to redo the turbo kit...... This time around i wanted the turbo to where you can actually see it, so i clocked it about 15*...... hood still closes and bumper still fits


The frame rail was going to give me issues with the exhaust..... i cut it and filled it back in with a pipe



I don't know how to do pie cuts, but they turned out damn good.


All mocked up


~finished turbo kit...... still need to add a wastegate to both banks, but that aint ****.


Teardrop fender dump came out good too, perfect fit.


Assembled!


Test fit a set of drag slicks i ordered....... looks good!



.....AAAAAnd thats about it. Hope you enjoy the build.
