winter build Hey I figured that I would post up the start of my winter build. For all you guys that live in places where it never snows eat your heart out. This freakin sucks. Looks like I'll have fun at 5:00 a.m. tomorrow chipping crap off my windshield! Bad thing about it is this won't stop until May. That's a 8 months away.

Dang dude from what I hear from Josh your build is also going to require a new safety item installed in your car next to the shifter. A built in pooper scooper for those unexpected moments lol. Sounds like that damn thing is going to be a handfull!

The a/r on my 72's is .81 How did you get .86 a/r on yours? I thought the next size up of a/r ratio was a .96 I've never heard anything bad about JGS and if Josh says they're good then I wouldn't worry. I just went with Turbosmart. I have a 52mm bov and twin 38mm (40mm) wastegates. Apples, oranges as long as they work right?

does anybody use those vacuum block's for their vacuum source? If not what do ya use. and for those who did the vertical radiators is there a griffin setup (27.5x15.5x3) that has the provisions for all the sensors, fittings and such?

dude we just had 6+inches dropped on us two days ago here in Northeastern Wyoming. There is no turbo weather here cause when the temps get down to turbo weather that means there is ice on the road. We have two seasons here winter and summer. Winter lasts for 7-8 months and summer lasts the rest of the year. We cherish warm weather days round here lol.

Well getting ready to order a new clutch for the car. What's the popular clutch to use for 1000+hp. Mcleod twin? Do you have to get their slave unit. Has anyone taken a stock 6 speed up around these hp levels with any success lol? Outside of straight up banging gears I would think it'll survive for a little while won't it? Or atleast the dyno session? Hopefully I'll have some pics soon for the turbo build. Josh is working his fingers to the bone lol. Just kidding Josh. I couldn't resist. Anyways let's hear some info on whether this m6 will hold on long enough for a 4l80 swap.

i have a mcleod twin. I am sending it in to have them upgrade it to handle 1300rwhp. They told me since i had the clutch already it would only cost $600to upgrade it.
