Started the fab work today. Snapped a few pictures. I am having a friend do all the fab work. Details on the build:
-Forged LS3 by Schwanke 9:5:1
-Futral motorsports cam
-Holley modular intake 102mm
-GMPP CNC L92 heads
-Turbonetics Y2K 91MM
-Pro-charger open race valve
-Turbonetics wastegate
-FM intercooler
-E85 fuel system (2) A1000 pumps
-TH400 with a Yank converter

Pictures as I go along.






Cut the flanges off the stock manifolds and put v-band clamps on them. This way I didnt have to re-locate the alternator. Turned out great.




Got the 4" downpipe to fit without touching anything with a UMI k-member.

 

That car moved pretty good on the bottle, should be bad on boost.

Care to share cam specs?

 

looks good man

 

SICK ride! Loved it while you were on the bottle (weird because I don't like bottle cars). Good luck!

 

Glad to see you going with a turbo. You will love not filling bottles anymore.

 

One of my favorite cars on here cant wait to see it all finished.

 

 

Take it u didnt like getting beat by a girl? Lol jk

 

it looks great. I cant wait to see how this runs when its done I was wanting to do a similar set-up.

 

Love the new setup!
OIL PAN kilr

 

Loving the build man! Looking great!


Im def in for results on that intake, i dont think anyone has used and or posted results from that intake yet!

Keep up the great work man! Looking forward to the final number!

SUBSCRIBED!

 

coming along. What are your plans to keep that thing cool back to back runs in tx?

 

Mounting the intercooler today and finishing more of the hot side. Ill post pictures later

 

At this point im just trying to get everything done to get the car running for Tx. Honestly at tx2k ill probably be running on about 800-900hp max. I do have something in mind that will keep temps cool but i doubt it will be on the car for the tx trip.

 

Moving right along with your build, keep up the good work. Your engine bay looks very clean.

 

Looks killer as usual!!!

 

Wow nice looking project & good luck on going from the bottle to snail.

It is also the 1st time I've seen a Holley Modular EFI intake used.

 

Always liked your car on the bottle.. subscribed

 

whats up with the twin A1000s why not one weldon 2345 a pump?

This is one build I'll be watching

 

Where in the hell are you going to mount the twin A1000's?

Nice build. I'm going to be following this one. I only did the bottle for one season and I was tried of getting the mother filled all the time....
