diesel project

[MetalShaper]

Project for a customer of mine...i will try and post more pics if there is interested.Its a build grant national with a art morrison chassis.6.6 duramax diesel motor quad turbo charged...almost done doing the all 3" stainless exhaust, starting the roughly 25 gallon hand formed aluminum fuel tank.

I couldnt view the picture but would love to. Post some more up!

[SickSpeedMonte]

So would I. Did Morrison build the chassis custom, or did they use the same one they did for the Holley Monte Carlo SS?

I love crazy stuff like this!! Awesome! More pics please, especially of the engine!!

[MetalShaper]

I will post some more tonight when I get back home.

We gave them our specs the front end is base off a g body front suspension but with coil overs.ive kiddies te rear frame to allow for a larger fuel tank and modified the front an under the floor hydro boost brake system.i went with deeds engineering exhaust hangers. All burns stainless domestic 3" tubing. The engine is being built and tuned by TTS in compton,ca and I'm doing all the fab work. Some engineering has been provided by Louie dietz.

is 3" exhaust gonna be enough to keep the EGT's down? i'd be extremely worried about that...

[Trevon]

This will be interesting...diesels make some massive power. And Quad-turboed!?

[MetalShaper]

My customers other car be it only single turbod has a single 4" exhaust....this one is duals with 3"......based off the engine builder and what he requested this is what we went with.

more pics hope these work

alright, i'm not a Duramax pro anyways! lol lookin awesome though!

[MetalShaper]

some more photos...started building the a buck to form the alumminum fuel tank, not finished but you can kind of see where im going with it.26 gallon fuel tank.

one more

[Uneek68]

did he say quad turbod?!

[MetalShaper]

attatched is our initial design of the front motor accesory plate.It houses a 2nd fuel pump which high hp diesel applications require, our power steering pulley,alternator, and dry sump pump.we went with a THUMPER racing tensioner and they also made are custom pulleys.We are having a plate cut locally for testing the final one will be anodized then machined to have that 2 tone look as in photos.We might add more ribs in the pockets of the cut outs, what do you guys think?

[MetalShaper]

machine work almost done on accesory plate and started to form the fuel cell.

[MuscleRodz]

did he say quad turbod?!

yes, but i have seen 8 turbos before. At least on this engine, he might be able to use them unlike the other which was more "because i can" approach

[MetalShaper]

We are also going to build a twin turbo setup and see which one gives us better results..More doesnt always mean better, there just isnt much test results on quad setups but the engine builder thinks we could get results on this diesel.

got the top and bottom of the tank formed its .120 3003 al. 3/4" radius on all edges.Down to working on this project 1 day a week.
