Sorry if I missed it but what are the turbos you are using? Size? A/R? Looks good. We just got done with a 99GT 6.0l T76 TKO500 build.

If I get some time this weekend i'm going to start instaling the motor, trans and mounting the twins. Once everything is done and fitted i'm going to pull the motor out to do the heads, cam and intake swap while the engine bay is being painted.

Here is a frw pictures of the Mustang when I brought it home. I have been getting the crap bashed out of me on other sites for putting a LS motor in this clean Mustang.










maaaaaannnn thats a beautiful roadrace/ pro-tour show car right there!!!



Im really debating a 87-91 camaro with a pro-tour setup!!!! and the motor im building...

I have never seen a grey five point harness before thats bad ***. Man I love those fr500 wheels I had some on my 2000 gt. Too bad Chad didn't finish this car I would love to have seen it since I only live about an hour from Huffman Texas. I was upset when I saw the dates on the posts I was about to suscribe.

I was offered a killer deal on the rolling chassis so I traded it off. I ended up selling the motor to a friend and he did not finish the car. The car is still sitting in the guys garage, he never did anything with it.

Didn't read the whole thread, and now see it's an old one, but was that a top mount turbo kit for a C5 that you were fitting in a fox?
