I'll keep that in mind. I should be OK once it gets unde the water pump. I plan on transitioning the 4" into my 3" duals that are already on the car, and possibly putting a cutout in there as well. Though, I'm not sure if I would see any gains? (Other than noise)

KILLER CAR!!
Pretty much my dream build for a killer street car.. I love everything about it.
My only recommendation for you is put a power glide in it now.... It will be way faster and not break near as much stuff..
As light as that car is, with 800-900 rwhp thru a glide, it would run 8.50s... Still be very streetable.

I wish I'd known that before I bought all this junk!

Car has taken a back seat to finishing my garage. Hope to have HEAT in the next week.
Made a slight bit of progress on the car though. Built a wooden fixture to mount the turbo where I want it. Now all I have to determine is height. Cut a hole in the OSB, bolts from the bottom up, two nuts on top of OSB (to clear compressor housing), then the transition and turbo are set on and bolted down.
This will allow me to take the turbo off and out of the way to build a majority of the hot side
