Great craftsmanship Jim! GT35r's will support 1000rwhp in a manual....probably 1100....As tight as my GT28's are, I'm impressed with the packaging....

Very nice, clean. Has a price range been established yet? If not a ballpark idea if you can.

Man this is one well thought out kit. Looks awesome and i'm sure it'll meet all goals you have planned for it.

I'd price it higher

Lol, most people get bored and wash their car or read a magazine, you build a killer turbo kit that is exactly what people have been looking for for years, a top quality, >500rwhp capable kit that retains AC and PS.

Good work, Shawn

Nice Jim. Thank you for finally building a sensable well thought out kit for the LS1 w/ (nearly) no shortcomings. Price shouldnt matter or be a factor in building a turbo kit and you guys realize that (you get what you pay for). VERY nice to say the least. Also, the world thanks you for having a jig and not selling kits that are not in stock/completed.

anyway some T4 turbos would fit in there?? I'm running a 383 and w/ T3's I'd think backpressure would be crazy.

Are the turbos supported by the header alone as it was with the CAS setup?

Thanks everyone. I've been working on this for some time, and I rebuilt many of the parts 2 or 3 times until I was completely satisfied with the fit and design.

ABeasst- If T4's would fit in that location I wouldn't be able to do it without removing the starter or notching the frame. These GT35's are a very tight fit. I believe lingenfelter uses the GT35R's on their 427's, and possibly Hennesseys vipers, but I wouldn't personally use them on anything much larger than 370ci, and ideally stock displacement.

Classic- There will be a steel brace from the header flange to the turbine inlet flange for support. (as there is on my LT1 car)

big bore/ shorter stroke......I like the sound of that. I was thinking a 5.3 crank.
INTMD8- what would the cubes be in a 4.030" bore and a 4.8 crank?
thanks
