engine is a 6.0 Lq9 out of a Cadillac escalade upgraded to the Ls6 intake with a 85mm throttle body and a oil pan kit from pace performance which is the same as the H3 hummer pan on the 5.3L Ls motors. Using the summit racing under drive pulley with an ARP 12 point bolt... the hot side kit is the ebay front mount that keeps a/c and I have a on3 performance 76mm t4 turbo. running a -8 feed line for the fuel and a -6 for return thru a aeromotive boost referenced regulator.

looks like I have to fab up some spacer for the oil drain line because the two an fittings I have are not lining up but I think it will be ok once the spacer is in... and im using the stock radiator and condenser so I hope to put the new fans on the back side of the condenser since there is no room between the turbo and radiator

Any suggestions on a clutch set that will handle around 600 to 650 to the tire?? I dont mind spending the $$$ if it means its not gonna blow up but not tryin to do overkill by any means... I have another build going right now for the over the top 1300+ hp and I just wanna get this camaro back on the streets so I can focus on the big build

I talked to colorado speed since im about 15 mins from their shop in south denver... im out here for business and I gave them a call and they said they want me to run their twin disk setup... and asking for $1000 shipped to my door... just a lil taken back by the price... I know I will be spending money hand over fist on this build as much as my other build but its all at once and killing me... grand for a clutch and a grand for tires... then I need to do brake and stuff so theres a grand.... **** goes to quick... and I looked at xtremedime thread where he did this setup so I got some good ideas

Just a random thought... about 2 yrs ago I purchased a used twin intanke walboro setup with the sending unit and tank and an lines... the guy brought me the entire setup with the hotwire kit for the pumps and showed me that they turn on...at that point they didnt have and socks or filters on the pumps and I have had them sitting in a half tank of gas since... I know im probably an idiot for not getting rid of the gas but im home like 1 week every 2 months soo never seemed like a priority. .. will I need new pumps at this point or will some strong fuel system cleaner do some good for these pumps and allow them to run...also im not saying they dont run right now... its more of the fact I havent looked at them in 2 yrs and have no clue if they will run..
