Progress Pictures...

I pulled the engine out of my Camaro last month due to worn out rings/too much blowby. The new motor is all ready to be dropped into the car.

The last motor made 560 RWHP on 10.5 psi. That was a stock long block, Custom cammed 6.0L. The new engine on the other hand is a 370" Futral Short Block with a set of AFR 225's bolted to it. Same Cam 226 intake/222 exhaust. Compression ratio is right at 8.9-9.0:1.

Also TTi upgraded the log with the new "Mondo Log" as the turbo manifold I had been running was one of the originals from 5 years ago... (Not one single crack BTW).

Also have a new Pro Yank Extreme 3400 going in, replacing the WAY too tight 3000 (2200 actual) I ran this year.

This is going to be FUN!

so does that kit enable you to keep the ac? should make some nice power. any reason why you went with an iron block instead of aluminum such as ls2 402?

Looks good.Nice coating on the hot parts and i like how the did the wastegate,its not at a 90* angle but less to help get the air out.Why only 10-11 #s on a built motor?

Actually the 10-11psi was on the stock motor, This motor is going to see a number a bit north of that...

The most I have seen was the T-76, the issue is clearence with the "frame rails". The Larger turbos mean you have to notch the frame. In fact the T-76-s that TTi use are a bit of a hybrid, it uses the large wheel in a smaller housing. Making it a little less efficient.

On the last motor I ran it a differnt way, on My Room-mate's Car, we ran his there, and has no issues with smoking at all.

On the inside of the pan, that fitting is flush with the bottom.
