Default A little closer on my junk

I haven't posted much about it but its getting there. With so much to do and spending alot of time on Ty's car and other crap at the shop getting ready for TI its been pretty dam stressful. We are close so here is a couple of Pics. More to come but my goal is just to have it 100% for TI. We will see the results. Jack Hatler @ the shop has came thru for me big time due to my off-time being limited due to my job! Danny has got my fuel system ordered and overnighted for the corn and we will put it in, in the next. Jeff helped me out on getting a starter that would fit right so I could run turbo blankets and Improved racing helped me out to relo my oil feed-lines without burning up my oil temp sensor. DSS came thru and semi sponsored me on a nice prop-shaft

If they don't fit I will return them. And Ill run on my CCW's. Robert Miller has them and he stated they fit fine. So we will see. At this point in the game I need a running car. The fenders are last on my list and the least of my worries. Traction will suck on my ccw's but we will see. All I can say for now. You have l5's?

i hear ya there, thats why instead of dealing with lewis i just sent the car to the body shop, if my stock fender didnt break during removal i would of just sent them back and kept it the way it was, sadly i didnt have that option.

what are you using for the fueling system for the "corn" (E85)

also interested in what coating is on the turbo manifolds

if this is "junk" throw it away and I'll be there to pick it up as soon as you are ready

nice setup. it's cool seeing the engine on the cradle with the ttix kit.

Everything look sweet JM.
Which turbos are those 6265s? I'm surprised you didnt build a custom kit with bigger turbos?

Best of luck I'm hoping for Lethal Crew to make a big impact in Ti specially that twin 7675s C6Z06 I've seen on facebook

The cover is big enough it wont fit when clocked how George does. It actually seems to work well routed that way.Cant wait to see some numbers and track times for this car !
