Sub'd. Do you plan on building any supports for the turbo? I was going to run this turbo on the Huron kit but Jon advised me against it because the kit was not designed for the weight of the turbo...

Got the cowl trimmed up pretty good, hopefully the windshield will go untouched and it will fit right in!
Waiting on a few other parts that should be here by next week to tie up the drivetrain then it will just be a waiting game for my heads and turbo!
On a side note, i am thinking about beadlocking my Weld RTS... what do you guys think? Champion does them for 200 each, then i would paint my front all black

I'm curious as to what this car is gonna weight! This is a stripper camaro but I also added 9",iron block and a big *** turbo! Once it's all said and done with 8 point cage, vfn hood, light carpet, kirkey seats I would like to be able to get down to 3100 without me in it.

That's pretty bad ***!! I have the same exact parts you do except I am running a single plane intake. Down to the suspension parts, converter and I have polished RTS wheels. I have a little more cubic inches. This Huron kit looks nice. I also opted to just put on a t6 flange on the kit and run it as is. Definitely in for results. .... I'm still waiting on my new motor to be finished and have to order a cam.

Ended up coming to the conclusion that i would have more money in my T4 kit than i would if i were to sell it and buy a T6 Hotside...
With that being said i gave someone a really good deal on the complete T4 kit and contacted huron speed to build me a custom T6 hotside that mounts the turbo compressor directly underneath the TB since i will be going non intercooled.
T6 kit will consist of either dual 4" downpipes coming out the fenders or a single 5" out the fender but as of right now that is undetermine. I will probably end up going with either the JGS 60mm or Precision 66mm wastegate.
Also going to be switching to a powerglide and will be ordering Rosslers terminator 3 with billet 1.80 Straight cut gears etc! going to start off with 4.10's out back and see how that goes!
since the car is going to be down longer than i expected i went ahead and ordered a Wolfe 8 point weld in cage and will have a local shop weld it in for me!
