LQ9 - C6/Truck manifold WS6 Turbo build (With A/C) This weekend we are finally putting it all together after 2 months of collecting parts for the build. Here are the details (Pics should be up Monday or Tuesday.
My old setup was a H/C/I setup on Nitrous and after one of the pistons went I decided to try something new, similar to the vette but on a single turbo platform. (Builder helped nudge me back into another turbo build)
I had a few supporting mods and built parts for the Nitrous setup that I was able to reuse so in the end here is what we have:

Added a Double Roller Timing chain to the setup for a little assurance.
Also going over and trying to decide wether to let them do a Wire Tuck on the car while its all apart. Opinions or should I just save the money for something else?
