Is the 106 on it or something new? I look forward to seeing some results out of the test hits. Hopefully, everything goes much better than last time!

he went smaller (didnt say size i think) and went to a new wheel design which requires super secret squirrel clearance to see.

basically... he'll have double the boost off the line than a lot of guys with bigger snails and be able to carry the boost at the top end.

Well after a long long drive 26 hours to be exact we're back home. Motor is still wrapped up in the truck, I'm going to pull it out here shortly and start a list of what I need to get it back into the motor. Some of the new stuff is going to take some time getting into the car but it should come together sometime this year.

I'll take some pics here shortly before the sun goes down.

I saw your motor when I dropped my car off. Looks like it'll be a beast. Have fun doing the test hits.

Distributor bracket
Move the dry sump
redo all the oil and water lines.

Surely putting a motor inside a motor isn't legal!

Didn't get much done today, got the headers bolted on and found out we have an issue with one of the EGT probes. Got one of the motor plates clearanced for the header and make a list of crap I need to get.

Judging by the looks of the water ports I'd say that block has a little more then 1/2 of it filled... should be nice and solid like that for sure.

Congrats on finally getting it home. Now, you get to do all the fun stuff!
