Will have to meet up and comepare twin turbo cars. I would like to see how yours turned out. I just heard from my engine builder that the short block is together and should be complete by the end of the year. All that is left is to get a TC and a shifter for my 400.

the 60 mms will be good for 600 hp ish each.. flywheel. They are garretts with a t3 stage 3 housing.

As of tonight the valvespings are done, truck manifolds on, sway bar dropped (ready for spacers), alternator off, rear ready for fuel pump install... and i believe thats all. Sorry, no pics, forgot my camera but there wasnt much eventful stuff to take pics of anyhow, lol.

on the drivers side, the power steering lines are going to have to be bent and they are right i nthe way where the hot piece goes, so that will be done soon. On the pass side, one of the studs for the truck manifolds is hitting the k-member (stock), but the hot piece fits fine and is not hitting the K. Will just had to use a nut and bolt on the manifold i nthe one spot over the stud. We are having a few issues figuring this alternator bracket out and how it mounts, and still need to get some new bolts for it.

Tomorrow we are picking up gaskets for the truck manifolds, bolts for alt bracket, bolt and nut for manifold, and hopefully get the 2 hot pieces mounted up. The rest of the pipes for the kit will be here thurs or fri so expect some big updates then. Thats all as of now, any other questions, feel free to ask.

lol. not planning on having it done this weekend however that would be nice. The turbine housings havent showed up yet so that means the turbo's havent shipped. Hopefully they get to John tomorrow and he can get them back out and have them to me by the weekend, then we may have it done. Shooting for 1st of the year!

As of yesterday the 2 hot parts off the truck manifolds are bolted up, alternator is bolted up, need a slightly smaller belt though than the one i picked up). To get the hot parts bolted up of drivers side, the power steering lines were moved and on pass side we fit a nut and bolt in instead of the stud from the truck manifold... stub was hitting the k-member, but the nut and bolt worked out good. Will take pictures when im working next! Keep posted!

As you wish.... The hot parts are mounted, wastegates mounted, FMIC brackets ready, alternator relocated (need slightly smaller belt, forgot i have an UD pully, haha) Guages are almost in, the power for lights is all set, got them in the vents, all ready to run then up to the engine bay! The pipes will be here tomorrow so hopefully some more progress will be made then. Any other questions, feel free to ask.

with hot pieces mounted off truck manifolds


hot parts


pass side


drivers side


wastegates mounted


drivers side


pass side


intercooler brackets on


guages...


more guages


end of day


The only issue so far is the mounting of the intercooler. Checking it out we are going to have to modify the support for the hood latch a little bit and either remove or bump up the washer fluid tank. If we can move it up, i'm going to use it for my meth, if not, i'll use the supplied tank from snow.

Keep posted for more updates! Any questions, feel free to ask!
