It's a custom turbo from Precision made to run in a class that has an 80MM inlet rule... motor is an iron block LS1 in the 40XCI range and ETP heads... I am running the same glide as last year...

My 9" finally showed up... So my chassis builder could not make much progress... I am in the process of lodging a complaint with Paypal as my torque arm was not shipped and I am missing brackets... I will update this thread with how things get resolved... needless to say, even though the quality of workmanship is top notch, their customer service sucks and I will not be ordering any more parts from NCC (http://www.nebraskachassis.com/)

Some photos I took yesterday... I decided to go with a deep dish 12" rim, the tripple springs showed up along with the Jesel stuff... you can see how the head studs compare to stock ones! I was up at the Chassis Shop tonight, some very interesting stuff going on up there!

Well.... Considering the guy who made it sent me a 36" long housing, I am actually lengthening it by about 6" a side

My custom torque arm is complete... the rear end housing has been extended and braced... check out how the new combo compares to my old BMR torque arm and 12 bolt!
