Cool 370+ GT4276 Truck Manifold build

Here is a car I am putting together for my buddy nnracing. Made some good progress on the car lately, so I finally snapped some pictures.
Here are the details

370ci Iron block
SRP pistons
Compstar Rods
Clevite bearings
LQ9 Crank
EPP Boost cam
ATI Super Dampener
Stock 317 Heads with Patriot Extreme Springs
LS9 7 layer head gaskets
ARP main and head studs
Ported LQ9 oil pump
Katech C5R timing chain
BBK SSI intake and throttle body
Speed Inc. alternator relocation kit
Lonnies complete double pumper fuel system
FRPP 80lb. injectors
Precision GT42-76 Billet turbo
"ebay" intercooler
Griffin radiator with dual pusher fans
Tial 44m wastegate and BOV
FLT custom 4L70E transmission
Vigilante custom turbo converter
Big Stuff 3 with DAI,fan control and trans control
Custom carbon fiber dash with Auto Meter gauges

Here are some pictures for now, I will update as we go, and should have a fire up video this week. Just have to wire it, and run coolant hoses and vacuum lines.
Still waiting for a few items to show up like the new wastegate Eboost2 and a larger K&N air filter then the one in the pictures.

That was my idea we just cut the back out of the core support with the plasma and tipped the radiator up it turned out awesome I thought.

It will be running in a week or, then final details and tuning, maybe a little North Carolina track testing before he takes it back home to Michigan.
Compression is around 9.5:1
We are not going to get to hung up on the hp numbers, we will have to hold back a bit with the GM 317 heads. Flywheel.

I think I am going to try to re-route the fuel feel line. I don't like how it looks.

Nice! What kind of water pump is that? Off a truck or vette? I need something like that to clear my procharger belt tensioner instead of stepping to a smaller cp.

Me too haven't heard it run for over a year since this project started, can't wait to drop the hammer and see what it runs also. Maybe single digit club in the future will see?

Lovefab did the basic kit, I have had to modify it to fit the car and I will get a little more exhaust under it.
