Looks good, Tom. Plenty of room in that engine bay, huh?

Do you have the intercooler in there yet(i.e. between the radiator and core support)

yeah, the driver side is a little more "crowded" than you would think, but we will get it to work without doing much (if any) chopping.

No IC in there yet, after the hot side is done, we will start the cold side. Jim has a plan in mind though. Originally Posted by Travis B

Great project! Are you still going to run a two piece driveshaft or coverting to one piece? Those frames are tight and tough to deal with in that area.

I bought them from Travis. They are 18x10 rears, and 18x8.5 fronts. Originally Posted by cspengler

My webmaster is on vacation, so I cannot get any more pics up on the site, but the turbo system hot side is complete to tail pipes, our new custom Classic Instruments gauges came in. We also are making a new glove box out of aluminum to mount the boost controller, and air ride controller. All of that stuff is out for coating right now.
Should have more pics next week.
