Sweet I can't wait! I'll have some more pics tomorrow hopefully. Alkycontrol kit came in today. Thanks again Lawnboy. I plan on moving the wire harness and possibly relocating it and the fuse blocks to the inside of the car under the dash. We'll see how that works out. If everything goes well I'll take enough pics and try to do a proper write up on it for those who have questions on it or are looking at doing it. Mabe I'll try to do the battery relocate this weekend if I get time.

 

Nice setup!

 

Here are some finishing pIcs of the Cold Side. Its all plumbed in and ready to ship. Just waiting on some 2.5" T-Bolt clamps to arrive and it is ready to go.

 

wow thats nice

 

Looks sweet Josh! I'm back in the states from spring break in Cancun. I'll be back home after the weekend. I finished up the battery relocate before I left. I'll post up pics and do the wireharness/fusebox relocate when I get back.

 

Sorry for the lack of updates guys (for those who were looking/waiting for them). I'm gonna be down for the count for a couple of days I think. I'm sick as a dog for now. I'll post up some of the pics when I get a little better. Chris

 

you drank the water, didn't you....

 

not on purpose lol. Unless they put water in the tequila or in the long island ice tea's. Mabe it was the ice lol. Anyhow I'm a lot better today. Started doing the fuse block relocate today. Looks like I'll be able to move the fuse blocks in the car without cutting anything. The only things I'll have to cut is the wires that actually go into the engine bay. I'll extend those and bring those back out. With the exception of finding where to mount the fuse blocks looks like it won't be too bad. I'll try to get some pics and updates of everything when I can. Gotta do the work first to have updates! Kit is ready to ship. Just got off the phone with Josh. Things are coming together!

 

Well, its time to finish this car. One word of advice before I begin the end. DO NOT try to do a project like this if you have a family and/or a job that demands 99% of your time because it will end up like this project. It has been a shame to have Josh's kit just sitting for this long in my basement. He put a lot of work into this kit and it is definitely evident when I drool/look at it from time to time. I apologize for that man and I promise to have this thing done really soon. I have some updates/pics that I'll post up tomorrow. The car is definitely apart right now and it will be under the knife (so to speak) this weekend. I just have to button up some things like shocks, reinstall the front bumper ect so I can move the car down to the shop so I can pull the engine and mock up the kit. I'll post pics as the build progresses along. I hope to have it done here really soon so I can a.) drive the dang thing and b.) post some pics and numbers to give Josh, LME and the tons of other vendors the credit due to make this build possible. I hope to have one of the baddest TRUE street cars to date which actually has working a/c and all the other amenities that you would expect to have in a street car. I don't know what to expect for hp numbers yet but based off of what I've seen from Jeremy's car I would expect it to make 1k providing I have a fuel system that is up to the task. Once it is done I will be able to say that I've done all the work to the car exluding the shortblock assembly and the turbo kit fabrication of course. Otherwise, I will be doing all of the other work/assembly. I'm not for sure who I'm going to use for a tuner yet, but Speed Inc comes to mind or possibly somenone in the Ft. Collins area. I just hope they have access to a mustang dyno to do some "real world" tuning. Anyways, I'm reviving a thread that shouldn't have lasted this long. So please don't pistol whip me lol. Thanks

 

You have spent some serious f'n coin bro lol.


SIIICk setup though. Dont break that t56! **** if you want something to break.. break the 60e out of my car and gimme the t56! haha

Will be the ride of your life... useless power on the streets at any boost level lol

 

I want a 4l80 anyways. I am contemplating selling the t56 with the mcleod clutch and just do that instead.

 

Sell it while you still have a working one to sale.

 

Well I've been busy with the car and I've had some updates to put up, but I've had less time to put them on the thread. Anyways I've got the wiring harness relocated. That is a pain in the ***. If you have to do this mod then take your time and think things through before you do them. If you're considering on doing this for a cosmetic mod then take it from me and just go kick yourself in the junk! (You'll have a better time doing that...trust me). Battery is relocated to the rear. Engine/t56 is pulled. Accessories are swapped over to the new bullet. I just finished up bending the brake lines to fit the new turbo k member. Koni shocks are installed for street duty. I haven't decided what I'll do for a drag setup once the car hits the strip. All the suspension is installed minus the a arms which I haven't purchased yet. I have a 4l80 in the works once the old engine and transmission are sold. The dana 60 is in. Next is mocking up the engine in the car and trying to fit the overlflow tank, trans cooler, intercooler and piping, radiator, cruise control and meth kit all in the front bumper lol. That should be fun. Mock up the hotparts to the engine and the new true dual exhaust that goes to the bumper. Once that is sorted out then the stainless parts will head to swaintech. Then the wiring for the eboost, meth kit and gauges will happen. Anyways here's some pics for those of you who have been patiently waiting lol (Jordan). I'll try to be more diligent about the updates. Thanks again to all who have made the build possible thus far. I appreciate it Josh.

 

2nd round of pics


10,000lb overhead crane made the engine pull VERY easy by the way lol.

 

Nice job on getting some motivation to get it done! Looks good man! Do you have more pics of the relocation of the fuse blocks? I have to do this for my twin kit as well

 

I'll take some more when I get a chance. Anything in particular for pictures?

 

Man i hope this car is ready for the holly fest

 

How its mounted and underneath pics if at all possible.

 

I'll take some pics for you. I am still actually in the process of finishing that part. I'm going to box it in like Jeremy did on his car. I do have some ideas for mounting the fuse boxes and securing them. I'll sort that out and give ya tha low down once I'm finished. I would love to come over to the lsx shootout with the car, but a. I don't have a cage. I would make once pass and that would be the end of it lol. and b. that is a long ways for me I'm going to try and make it over for the shootout with some buddies, but it'll be pressing since the ole 10th is coming up for me and the wife on the 13th. So that'll be two big trips one right after another. So best I'll be able to do is meet up with you guys over there....I hope.

 

^^I appreciate it. I've seen a couple mounting locations and I like this one the best. When my kit comes in, I have to make sure it's out of the way though. Did you run the wiring in the fenderwell? What connections did you use solder and heat shrink?
