Default Pics Custom Truck Manifold kit

Hello ladies and gentlemen just thought I would post up some pics of the custom truck manifold setup we are doing on my WS6. The setup is going to be a Turbonetics BB T76, TH400 Trans Brake, 9" and for now because of one of our fellow board members (jsconiers) ripped me off on my 6.0L. I will just have a stock LS1 out of a 2000 Trans Am in it. My plan is for a forged iron 370 when all said and done but the car hasn't driven for almost 2 years and I just want to get it running and low boost is better than no boost and a parked car. So here are the pics. I will keep posting up more pics as we make more progress

I like that cross over. Too bad you got ripped on the "Hurricane Katrina Motors". I was seriously considering buying one of those.

The way the thing is mounted I can't see having any problems with the pipe breaking so we won't be making a support bracket. It is pretty solid in there

Looks good, but just be sure to go over any pin holes and clean the excess wire out of the DP in that one pic.

Oh yeah we definatly will. Right now we are just getting it piped in the car. When it is finished we are going to drop it down and take it all and redo the welds and grind them smooth and most likely paint the whole system. Thanks
