Looking pretty evil Nate. Where does the throttle body go?

The twins will be killer. I love them mounted up front with the radiator layed down.

Did you ever share the smaller cam specs that put your 5.3 in the 9s with the 76mm? It seemed to really help your spool and area under the curve.

Sick!!!!! Can't wait to see it at CF some time. Those are cast 66's right? I'll be curious how they light off compared to the PTE 88 you had.

Intake is from Precision Metalcraft (best customer service in the biz) and yes cast 66's. Planning 3-4 trips to CF. See you there.

You might actually get to see my twin turbo corvette for once this year, getting close! What a pain that project has been. Those turbos you have are great bang for the buck.
