Good looking project, love a third gen. See you're shooting for 850 whp. What kind of turbos you planning on running?
Definitely run the 4l80e. Without some money thrown at it a 700 won't last for long with that much power and it sucks having to drive home in 2nd.

i'm sure i will upgrade down the road but for now they will do. i figure i can do my learning curve on some cheap ebay turbos before i get off the porch to run with the big dogs lol
i also plan on doing meth injection and possibly nitrous even though from what i'm told i wont need it.... but it would look cool in the back hatch lolol we'll see

Good luck to you with those Ebay turbos. Also I'd try and spend the extra money for a GOOD intercooler or maybe even a custom one. Also if you have the ability I'd buy polished bends from places like Vibrant racing and weld/tig as much as possible as to many couplers make boost leak nightmares. 4L80E is a must. If those 255 pumps are not walbro's then be carefull as alot of the kockoffs have high fail rates. LMK if i can help with anything. 4 Years into mine and ALOT of redoing. Car looks good though!

the pumps... we'll see lol i didnt think it was that big of deal to drop that tank so ya i know i'm cutting corners in places. not for lack of money just because i dont want to ruin good parts with my first turbo build.. might sound silly but i'd rather make my mistakes with cheaper parts and put better in next summer when i go through and make upgrades.
thanks
ps i'm out in the garage today so i'll have more pics later this evening

not sure what that means.. I'm a newbie if it means t3 flange then yes. i know there on the small side but they should still do pretty good for starters.
ok so been out in the garage all morning and i'm not done but this is where i'm at right. next will be making my subframe connectors which will be the next set of pictures hopefully tonight or tomorrow.
