Is my setup missing anything?
Is my setup missing anything? Just want to run this by the more experienced FI members here to make sure I'm not making some obvious mistake.
Building a front mount setup on my 98 formula, so far I have
Front mount kit from LS1Silverado05 as seen here:
https://ls1tech.com/forums/parts-cla...turbo-kit.html
- A Master Powers MP T70 .96 Turbo
- A 38mm Tial Wastegate
- A 50mm Blow-Off Valve
- An Oil Feed & Drain Kit
- Non-EGR Truck Manifolds
- Standard Truck Flanges and T4 Flange
- Mandrel Bent Fabricated 2.5" Merge Pipe, and 3" Downpipe Wrapped
- 3" Intercooler and Cold Pipe
- Hallman Pro Boost Controller
- A-Pillar Gauges (Fuel,Boost,Trans)
And separately I have:
- 01 5.3 shortblock
- 317 heads
-.053 MLS gaskets
- Hardened pushrods
- PRC single beehives .600 lift
- LS6 ported oil pump
- Racetronix 98 in tank single 255 with hotwire kit (this will be upgraded after I get the car up)
- 60lb injectors
- GM 2bar MAP
- LS2 timing chain
- ARP head bolts
Other than the usual gaskets and bolts that I will need, I think I have it covered. I plan to run it probably 6-7 PSI for a while until I get it well tuned and upgrade the fuel system further, but I can't afford the kind of fuel system I want right now so it has to wait.

if you dont have the money then rock the bolts until you can get the studs
Yeah, 10 bolt is going to have a short, short life. Thats fine, it only needs to make it a few months. I already have an upgraded clutch but I doubt that will hold very well either. I wanted to do studs but its $100 difference and I just didn't have it.
