#242
great build so far man keep it up. i skipped so pages but do you have a budget number in mind? i have my old high school car 94 3.4L i want to someday do a 6L 91+ build on.

shootin for 600hp range. Gonna use this motor to get everything dialed in then next winter tear it back apart and build a fordged 370 and really turn up the boost. But need to start somewhere first to learn on. This should be a good solid motor to learn on though.

motor wont go in for prob another month or 2. Still need a lot of little things to get it done. I could put it in now but im in no rush and would like to put the parts on it with it on the engine stand. And i want to do the turbo mock-up on the engine stand to so i can run my feed/drain lines and get a good view of it all.

I can't believe I am just now getting around to this thread, the build is coming along nicely, so Now that you switched to the turbo kit what are your weight goals?
When I was reading over the first few pages I could see you easily getting to 2800# RW as I am currently @ just under 2850# and I weigh 200+, and I don't have a lot of the reduction you have as I still have the stock K-member, frame horns, all interior metal (rear seat brackets, seatbelt brackets, and etc.) So yeah I can se you getting lower than you goals...
I may steal some of you ideas thought to go even lighter after I get my cage in. Best of luck to ya...
