408/s480/glide build thread figured id jump on here late and start my build thread on my 96 s10.

back with the old 5.3 and 200 shot, drove it to high school for 2 years with this set up. best et of 9.99 @ 133
but now to the important part... the turbo build. in nov of 2015 we torn it apart after a transmission explosion that took out the windshield, dash and floor pan.
engine setup: 408, eagle crank and rods, diamond pistons, dart pro1 225 heads, supervictor intake converted to 4500 with custom billet elbow, Barnes 6 stage dry sump
body: fiberglass front end, doors, tailgate, and dash
fuel delivery: waterman Bertha cable drive pump, billet atomizer 550 injectors,
fuel:M1
turbo: borg s480, 1.32 turbine ar, billet wheel
trans: deadenbear one piece glide case, promod pump, pro brake, 1.80 straight cut gear set, ultimate 3200 stall
rear diff: fab 9, strange 35 spline, strange brakes
trucks being built for a heads up class that runs a 26x8.5 tire. hoping to go low 5s and maybe dip into the 4s with a bit bigger tire
