Nice build! I'm interested to see how those obx turbo headers work out. Lots of talk going on about them, but no one has really seemed to put them to the test yet.

Nobody complains when they show the work that the machine shop/engine builders did assembling shortblocks, but does that take away from the 'build' if someone else does work that is outside your talent or skill level?

OP, great looking build. I love the intake and the wheels are beautiful as well. Keep up the progress pics, I'm interested to see how this turns out.

It is a Chris Alston G link. Front rim is a 19x9 and I forget the tire size.

Sweet build regardless whether it's built in a garage or at a shop. I think I've seen your car on one of the PT forums also. Keep the posts coming

Thought I would update. I went ahead and got rid of the turbo idea. Car is running 231/236 cam, Ozmo manifold, Holley Dominator EFI, 3" exhaust through SPintechs. Made 513 RWHP on a stock block/heads.
