Did you weld a bracket to the frame to mount the turbo?

If so, make sure that you have flexible couplings between each header and the collector or movement of the motor relative to the frame will crack the tubes.

I have solid motor mounts and a rear engine plate for the car so I wouldnt think it would move. Couldnt mount it to the motor not enough room to make me happy....


Yep thats the one from Scott Pearson! :)

A few things left to buy and put her back together. Including taking out the cage I didnt do and putting a new one in.

Nah that's ok. I think yours is going to be quite a bit faster than mine is. Plus mine is just a street car. Pick on someone your own size. :( :p

Yep it should be slow but I will see what it will do in D/R and on slicks... I might not be a true heavy hitter right off the trailer but with some tunning I dont think 8s are going to be out of the question...

I want the 1000hp to the tires... which means after the set up is built and running the short block will be for sale in the $2500 range...
