I always had this same thought in the back of my mind. She loved my car before we got married, did that, then put her Nursing school AND now she's said "find the turbo you want and I'll take care of it". Hell-to-the-Yea!!!!!!!

Well guys like I said, I picked up the coupe this weekend. As promised here are the pics. As for now all I can upload is the ones from my phone. I haven't gotten the ones off the camera yet.










I will be removing some junk tonight. Mostly all the under hood stuff. There are all kinds of wires in there.

I can't tell for sure, but is that a iron 5.3?
are you going to punch it to 5.7? That would make nice track motor if forged.

It is an Iron 5.3, for now I was thinking of running the stock 5.3 stuff. I may punch it out to 3.898 so it can take the stock ls1 rods and pistons and I beilieve I could still run my 01 truck crank.

Can't make up my mind though, I dont know if going from 5.3 to 5.7 would make THAT big of a difference.
