Yeah the 8:1 408 freshened up with new pistons, rings and bearings will be the engine.

In our defense, we're running only a 346...

Okay, that was weak... +1

Looking good guy. What are you going to do for I/C? You already swaped out the stock PCM for a BS3 right? I still believe you'll do a lot better with an air-2-ice intercooler set up. Fan? Rad? I think I have found a great combination. It takes at least 10-15 minutes just to get the car temp up to 140, and than kick in the 3000 cfm Spal fan and it goes down to 110 . If you need any suggestions just ask. Boise is a long ways from any major shop. What's your cam spec's? Who's doing your work?

Good luck. Keep us posted.

David

looks great...just an FYI, took my twin master power t-70 355 lt1 out the other day, saw positive boost pressure at about 3700rpm...and it was climbing fast, but i backed out at about 5psi because its not tuned well yet, but the way it was climbing im sure full boost would hit below 4400rpm...so your 408 should spool them rather quickly

good work, keep us updated!

I guess most of you are not aware this car was running with twin T70s last year. It is a street car, and ABS was deleted.

The spool time from a roll vac to +9PSI was 0.6 sec @ 60mph in 3'rd gear on a th400 3500 converter.

Took it apart to change to some higher quality turbos, I had ebay T3 turbos before, these are 96 AR T4 housings. Also added stuff like a cage and a huge radiator. Just minor upgrades

More pics will be up end of the week.
