Default 72 c-10 6.0 bw s476r

Just thought I would throw up a few pictures of the Chevy truck that Im just finishing builiding the turbo kit for. Its a 72 C-10 that the owner installed an iron 6.0 and recently installed an LS3 topend.

Uses up and forward truck manifolds, cut down with sch 10 pipe, 2.25 304 hotside with twin Tial 38 MVS's, 4.5" 304 downpipe with a 4" cutout and ties back into the sleeperish dual exhaust with glasspacks. Ebay air to air. Goal was to retain a stockish outside look with 1000hp potential under the hood.

Looking forward to it. Very similar to my old build. It definitely is fun to drive, and you'll be amazed how well those trailing arms work with just some decent tires. I went 1.7 60's with a stock 5.3 in mine and a stalled th400, and 1.6's with a 150 shot and absolutely no suspension mods, just 275/60/15 et street radials

Nice, job.
Do you have more pictures of the engine bay ?
Specifically the hot side routing for the turbo.

Thank you.
