I appreciate it mang! Well, All that's really left is installing the DBW pedal/module, doing some wiring, filling that huge tank with e85, running oil lines to turbo's and finishing cooling system. Days work lol.

Trust me, you guys know me I will most certainly post up some sideways action and burnouts. That TH350 and 10" converter should easily lite those rear tires up with a blip of the throttle, especially under boost haha

A long days work lol, seriously though I really like this build. My dad has a truck just like yours that we are working on together. I tried talking him into a turbo 5.3 but he is set on his warmed over 355 and that is probably safer

HAHA yeah it should most definitely lite those tires easily

Keep it up man, again, very cool.
Lol trust me there will be many eyebrows raised, especially the yuppies with their ladies lol.

***UPDATE***

Update for you guys!

Got a couple more things done tonight. Wanted to show you guys a really sweet mounted point for the tac module on these trucks.

Well, I went with DBW setup due to the PCM and Harness I had laying around. The factory 1989 cruise control module is mounted next to the brake booster on the firewall. As I was trying to figure out a good spot to drill and tap some holes to mount the TAC module, I happen to notice the bolt pattern/spacing looked very close to the TAC modules bolt pattern. Guess what…. EXACT same bolt spacing and all, freekin bolted right up haha.

Anyways, couple more teaser pics for your guys…

Tac Module and PCM location



Look at the match up haha



Didn't cheap on on this one with the turbo feeds.. AN lines suck to make BTW





80lbers spaced out (tall versions)



F-Body Radiator in (Just gotta slide the fans on and paint the brackets)







And downpipes are all wrapped up (Yes I only used zip ties to hold the wrap in place as I thought I had 3" clamps, but didn't_

I appreciate the kind words!

UPDATE, well I got a lot accomplished for the day so far, not much more before I can start her up. I took a break from this 103 deg texas heat to show you guys what I made for the farm truck...

Shovel Shifter is now completed and I'll tell you this, it feels rowdy having your hand waaaaaaay up on the shifter lol!! I think it kicks ***!







And of coarse after I burned some wood to give it a nice touch lol

Very cool! Where did you plumb the oil feed from for the turbos? I'm guessing the oil sender behind the intake?
