Sorry guys about the lack of the turbo part of this build. Still waiting on pipe order. But by the sounds of things the holidays have the shipping pushed way back, like the end of next week

But Mike and I are working on the less fun stuff right now
Strip off all the old shitty powder coat off allot of crappy looking parts tonight and got them in primer.

It might take awhile lol. I have to be home first to even start. I'll atleast have a nice pile of parts to start with. A lot will have to be modified though. BB and I are still working out the details on paper...I'll let you know what our final game plan is.....its a lot to say the least.

This pump will be able to do what ever I want to do. Like way bigger turbo or E85. If I want to make 1000 rwhp on E85 all i.got to do is get some 160lbs injectors and rock on. With the old pump setup if something happen to make one of the two pumps kick out under WOT good bye new 402. If this single pump goes out the engine shuts off.

And it was such a good deal I couldn't say no
