I really like the looks of the Huron turbo setup. I got my V2 in a couple weeks ago and so far have only installed the hot side....fit like a glove. If the rest fits this well, I will be very impressed.
Good luck with your build, looking great so far.

Update 2/18/2015 Well a few things have changed recently and not much work is getting done. After sending my TSP heads in for warranty/repair they decided they could not fix them. Apparently gm doesn't sell the 243 heads anymore just the 799 heads which are a lot more expensive. So they decided to give me a heck of a deal on there as cast 225cc heads. Just received those yesterday, also after talking with somebody about recent problem with morel lifters I decided to switch to some Johnson Short travel link-tie lifters. ALSO my goals were to have this car on the dyno the first of may...With the big huron speed group purchase the kit was tentatively suppose to ship in april but couldn't be promised....sooo I ended up purchasing a nice v1 a/c kit from huron to run.. Maybe I Will swap it out with my v2 kit next winter. Im hoping to have the engine/trans together and bolted up ready to go into the car finally next week!

Update 3/3/2015 Just a little update. Engine is basically ready to go into the car, just waiting on a fitting to tap into the rear of the intake so I can relocate the map sensor, also had to measure a master cylinder shim from tick performance, that should be in today. Getting closer to first startup!

Update Just a little update, everything is basically together. Just working on a base tune to break everything in with hitechtuning.com. New tr6060 magnum and monster lt1-sc feels good. The clutch I am very happy with, it feels almost like stock. I still need to have all gauges installed, exhaust fabricated from down pipe to cat back, and some odds and ends.

You might have to replace it. It is 13 years old. I am Easton, I was giving suggestions on Facebook. If you want I have a stock radiator that I know is good, it is off my car. It is a M6 stock radiator, and I will sell it cheap because I already have a Griffin on its way. It you wanted to go that route, it would save you a couple of hundred dollars.

I was going through the same kind of overheating issue and it ended up being so stupid I haven't told anyone. Lol I had one of the fans wired in reverse. It's worth a check if you haven't figured it out yet.

Finnally had the car tuned Hey guys, thought I would updated this thread with results. We ended up finishing up the tune with some impressive #'s. I was running a 12 psi gate spring hoping the controller would control it up in the low 20# range but it would only control it up to 17psi. We did develop a couple exhaust leaks which is why it was backfiring a bit, so that didn't help the boost issue either. But at 17# it made 880hp, and with the cutout closed it made 14# at 740Hp. I don't think I will be making any pulls with the cutout closed, guessing the back pressure if through the roof!
