Small update...found out the aeromotive belt drive fuel pump I had fits well on this car
started welding the mount plates for the torque arm to the SFCs
Ordered the intercooler: treadstone TRTT9 (1300hp) a/a
Pretty sure I identified the radiator I want...31x19" griffen (1.25" tubes) with matching shroud and dual spal fans. Need to get it ordered soon so I can make sure I can properly fit the down pipes off the turbos.
Planning on running dual 3" 304 stainless downpipes to the back of the car. I stopped by my local weld shop and bought some helium tri-mix gas and 308L stainless mig wire so I don't have to TIG all of those joints LOL

Been fairly busy on this for the last 2 months.
Welded in plates to support the intercooler and then welded in four threaded inserts to fasten the intercooler permanently
Fabricated the cold side pipe between the driver side turbo and the I/C
Tacked in a new battery tray, clearanced for the turbo and got the passenger turbo connected.

Cut a bracket out of 3/16 steel and welded to the frame rail for the passenger motor plate to bolt to. Still need to do the driver side.
Also got more hot side completed on passenger side - managed to squeeze in the WG and will be able to snake the output underneath to the downpipe (or to atmosphere). Did get it fully welded yesterday - just didn't take a photo. Yes the hood closes
Driver side will be MUCH easier
