haha.. Yep Nick was buzzing the TIG along the 25.5 cage...

I am looking to start at the end of the week, just waiting for a tb/elbow. I got Nasty's rails coming today so we can install the 160's. We then have to complete the turbo plumbing to rear, then back to front. I'll update some pics as we go...

Vacuum Pump I bought through GZ. It's the race only kit for 1000+ HP. They did me right I'm sure you can give them a call. Yes I needed to make a new bracket off the head (You can see in picture, I havent powdercoated it yet).

good deal.

not sure if you have an elbow yet, but a friend of mine is in the procces of making adjustable 90 to bolt onto the carb style. they rotate 360* and clamp down. he has tested them to 30 psi with no issues. they are bad ***.

I'd definitely be interested. I got the Wilson LSx elbow for now.. but like I said we have about 40 hours left in the cage, 20+ hours turbo setup and another 20 hours estimated of other misc. stuff.
