I know, I know, I may have owned 9 different sets of heads, three short blocks, 3 cranks, 4 sets of rods, and 4 sets of pistons, but I've learned from my mistakes.... That's why everything is getting toned down and the goal is to get them running. Which hopefully will be an achievable goal sometime soon. (I hope)

You on the other hand had the complete turbo kit, sold it, bought the procharger setup, sold it, and are now going to buy another turbo kit...

well got fuel system all finished up. The one picture is the feed line, goes from tank to pre-filter, into pump, out of pump to post-filter, up to the -10 inlet of y-block, out with (2) -8's and into back of rails. Other picture shows the return.. Reg. mounted to fuel rail and other rail into it, exits out of bottom back to tank. This system should support me for the rest of my life...minus swapping out pumps later on

GETTING CLOSER!

Sacked up and bought a welder to finish up a lot of things and fab up more stuff! Other then that got the pump mounted and all the lines ran so fuel system is now complete, relocated the catch can to make room for turbo placement/hot side pipes. P.S. the black line is SOO much nicer to work with then the stainless line! Now time to move on to the electrical part and hopefully get a start-up soon

lol thanks! It was really hard cause the first 2 years i didnt have a garage so it was all bolt-on, quick stuff. Then my buddy bought a house with a 2.5 car garage and thats when it all went downhill!! Now i bought a house almost a year ago and its sooooooooo much nicer being able to go out there whenever and **** with it and not have to "plan a day" to do **** ya know. However anytime u need somethin or whatever lemme know, i do side work cheap!
