Wanna borrow a WS-6 to test fit, just in case anything is different??? Just send the kit home when you're done!!!

Just kidding, I am not only over the 370 inch comfort zone but also about 11:1 compression!

Definitely looks like a SWEET setup. Anybody out there wanna trade a 383 stroker for a stock-displacement-forged-internals (preferably Iron Block) Motor???

C'mon, I know somebody does!!!

That definitely looks like a bad *** setup. I have always wanted to go turbo but sa has been said before, with these Alabama Summers, AC is a MUST!!!

Can't wait to see some numbers and final pics!

Very nice. I like how tight everything is to the bottom of the car.

Jim, very nicely done. Will be looking for the numbers, track and dyno. Why not use a set of stock manifolds while tucking the turbo's down there, not enough room? Sorry if it seems silly, but I havent seen manifolds on an F Body in a few years

Not much i can add to whats already been said. Great looks, get to keep accessories, and a trust worthy place to buy from.

Ive got to learn to have enough self control to stop sending you guys all my money....lol.

Looks great. This is what the old bone stock 2000 ss needs.

CAT, not sure with Jim's set up but there is very little room at the bottom to get 'clean' without heat. Someone tried a similar set up out here, went boom in no time flat. We got to watch oil spray down the track from the housing - RyanK could tell you about getting clean air and heat dispersion.

If you had a choice, which turbo's would you suggest for a 408ci? Do any of those gt40's come with a t3 flange? Or can it be fitted? You mentioned that you would need to relocated some stuff, how much, if you dont mind me asking, is "some stuff"? I dont see a whole lot to get out of the way..

thanks!! Kit looks great and saving money already for either this or a cas kit...

i doubt a GT40 could fit, though they make Gt35's with 1.06, .82 and .63 AR
so garrett rates each turbo from 2.0-4.5L (per turbo depending on the AR)
