Just wanted to have this thread to document our build on my close friend's vehicle. Want to be able to look back at the process.

As of 1/18:
Car had the entire drivetrain dropped in from front to back, minus accessories. The entire fuel system is installed, just need to finish up everything in the engine bay after the turbo system is finished. We didnt want to run any lines that would be in danger due to the systems heat. Vehicle is currently in the process of fabricating the turbo system. Should have about 2-3 weeks left on that step. Afterwards we will get it buttoned up, accessories on, fuel system finished up, fluids in, load a pre tune in it to break in then get her on the dyno and put some numbers down. This has been a long build and can't wait to see it finished.

As of 1/27:
Turbo Manifolds are done and ready to go. Starting on the cooling system and the air to water set up. Plan on having everything finished by the 15th and back on the lift to put the final pieces together for break in.

As of 3/13:
Turbo System and Cooling System are complete, car just needs small pieces connected and finished to be ready for Dyno.

That car is going to be a damn nice ride. Hate to think though how much all that is going to cost in the end. Good luck with the rest of the build.

Haha we don't plan on running it at the track with the stock rear. It won't see any track time until the Powerglide and C6Z RPM rear are in it. Shooting for 7s!

Should have some updated pictures of the Turbo system fabrication today. Still have to work on the cooling system and radiators.
