it's alive... IT'S ALIVE!!! Well after a year, lots of blood, sweat, tears, pain and more money than I'd like to admit, she is finally running. There is still plenty of minor things left to do, but SHE IS RUNNING. 
I need to get the exhaust welded on and get it dyno tuned, but all I can say is WOW!!!! As it sits now, I can barely give it gas and she wants to go. Throttle is very responsive and all I have to do is just touch the pedal and she comes to life.
Unless something unforseen happens, I should have dyno numbers tomorrow. This has been a long journey and hopefully the fun starts now.
Thank you all for your help and putting up with my newbee questions. LS1TECH ROCKS!!
I would also like to thank Billy at Texas Rear Turbo for all of his time, help and patience. He is the man regarding STS stuff.
Anyway.... WOW!!!

Mike, Paul is still here at my shop for now. We are getting a few things wrapped up, then he is going to San Antonio to let Nelson tune his car. He already has a Nelson tune, but since he is here now, he can get it tweaked in person.
