Wow I hope they fit just fine without any major headaches. Please keep us posted and take some pictures if you can and don't mind because this is an upgrade I am certain allot of us would like to make providing they will fit.

Oh and on your jethot coating did you have a guy locally that did that for you or did you just send them to the company directly as I would like to coat mine again because I am porting them and cleaning them up inside and out so they aren't so jagged and sharp. I appreciate your help and keeping us informed on the TO4E fitment.

I drove 2 hours to a coater that uses the JH formula....I didn't want to take a chance on UPS losing something I could not replace.

Thanks for the info onfire. I will have to look around and see who is around here in KC that can do it as I would like to do mine again too. Hope everything is working out well for you and that them big bad boys are going to fit for you. Best of luck.

That will be awsome cablebandit as I would like to hear what kind of power you make with your -12 turbos. Good luck to you.

here are the numbers i got to compare:
346 20-21psi 820/823 thru stock i/c
403 20 psi 747/920 stock i/c
the 346 has more power in it for sure safely...back pressure is getting too high in the 403 to safely push it any more. no doubt the 346 will make 850rwhp...maybe more. I would like to see what a 5.3 could do but a 346 is about the right size motor i think. Should be able to get 24ish psi out of them. I have my kit for sale now in the FS section as I may try something new. If i have too hard of a time selling it, ill go down in cubes...frontmount and live with that. Kit is just so damn reliable. Well thats my story

this makes my brain start to hurt....adapter flange to put a t-3 turbo/housing on to a manifold with a t25/28 (our incon) manifold

leave the -12 cartridges as is but put an internally wastegated t-3 housing on for more exhast flow...wonder if that would work......i emailed about thickness and bolt thread/pitch used for mounting...

remember when the kit came out, there was no editing for the ls1 pcm so to speak. I talked to Mike at Blouch this morning....t-3 .86 a/r is about 1" bigger everywhere than the .86 i have now. Even with more ehaust flow...i wonder how much the -12s could make anyhow. I know it would do 850 dynojet now and maybe a little more with a frontmount so it may not be worth the expense since that would prolly max out the flow of the turbos anyway. the 346 is perfect for the incon kit though...i have seen that first hand

Cable.. Don't sell, adapt! I hate reading that you're selling it.. Love your setup.

Plus the idea of selling it to a guy who's buying them all up is to me.. Not that I would criticize you if you did.... But I hate the fact that this Jay fella is going to buy them all up (probably for resale) before I get the chance to get my mits on an Incon setup

And... If I recall correctly, you owed me some sort of pictures from months and months back!

If I had some extra cash I would have picked up cable's kit.
I would love to do a ls1 Incon conversion in my bbrsz, make it a ttrsz to go with my ttssz. But I'm still to bizzy trying to get a non defective 9" rear.

I saw 3 kits for sale in the last 2 weeks.

You can't talk like that if you're selling it ... Once it's gone you'll be saying "damnit!!"
