I had the turbo set up running on a different thirdgen that has some rust issues. So I bought a body and painted, swapped, caged, etc. It took a little over a year to completely swap everything and work the bugs out.

I def like the 98-02 LS1 fbodies better than the current Camaro. The one in the middle looks actually more MODERN than the 2010. IMHO of course.
thanks

op's car is stupid clean and done right just needs a bottom end and more boost if he expects to keep up

I just used ls1 modified manifolds and mild steel piping with V-bands then wrapped it all in heat wrap.

It wasn't bad at all. I had some mounting tabs off of the roll bar and the trans tunnel, the hard part was cutting the large plastic trim piece for the top to fit the curve of the window.

What all did you do to the manifolds to get them to fit in the frame rails? Or did you just weld on V-bands? Love your car! Post some more pics of the turbo.
