Today i just bit the bullet and ordered 2x 72mm Turbonetics Mid Frame ball bearing turbos. Also got 2x 45mm wastegates. Thanks to Jason @ TCI for setting it all up for me!!!
Spoke to mike @ aes and my vintage ac, roll cage, clutch and a few other pieces have turned up. He is making a big box/pallet for it all.

Sorry for 0 updates. Between being flash flooded, then river flooded, and the mech shop taking ages with my diff. I haven't been able to make much progress. Hopefully i can get it rolling this week then move it out for some "dropped on it's guts" shots and then put it in the garage where i can make some actual progress and it's not 40deg (104f)..

Got some work done this weekend. Finally picked up my diff. Mocked it all up and sat it on the ground to see how it looks. Didn't bother with the panhard bar or swaybar yet. It's all coming back out anyway.

those seats are awesome. What an amazing build, this is one of my dream cars. I'm interested in how all the plumbing will work up front for the accessories and the turbos.

Also, from a chassis perspective, did you ever consider this? http://schwartzperformance.com/1962-...is-full-frame/

Not really, we have a lot of legal hoops to jump through here in Aus. As it is it's going to be hard enough. Also, $$$$. I'm way under 10k for all my suspension/brake/chassis stuff. And we will be making some modifications in regards to stiffness.

Motor is being packed up now with everything.
Payed for it to be run in on the stand @ AES. Not my intake/valve covers/etc.
Big thanks to Mike for everything.

I couldn't make out the psi or the temp. The thing to know about that is the cold startup oil psi and what it is after it's warmed up. The guys at AES know their ****. I have no doubt that you'll be getting a quality setup.

This is a badass build and I can't wait until i have the space to do me an old resto like this. Maybe a 67 shoe box, chevelle, or camaro. Do you plan on disassembling and coating everything?
