OP-nice build but may want to fab up a little better radiator holddowns?
Does it spool pretty fast? I am going with one on my forged 355 lt1 and only rev to about 6,200rpm. Do you have any vids of your car?

Nice!!!. I'm glad it's all working out for you man.

Any dyno #s or track times?

I'm going to be dropping in a L92 w/ ported heads and a FAST 102 in a few months. I'll also be dropping in a pair of ebay GT45 turbos.

downpipe uses v-band clamps in multiple spots and can be taken off in about 3 minutes and plug access is a breeze

Here is a few short clips in 2nd and third gear just getting into boost a little to hear my whistle ha. Nothing crazy or any 100% throttle pulls but here is an idea of what it sounds like with the cut open (3.5" downpipe open under the passenger seat with no muffler)
