What intercooler setup are you going with? Garrett cores or maybe the big 6x6x12 inch CSF cores?
You could always go M1 and fit another 106 in there!
oh and loving the billet merge / flange! That’s got to make things easier!...

The merge is one of those deals where it is expensive up front, but will save me a bunch of time. With this being a nights and weekends project with spring coming fast, I need all the help I can get!

Intercooler is set to arrive Thursday! Now I can really get this thing going.
Some more small projects in the meantime.. Made some more room up front, finalized the 6 rib alternator drive, welded up the egt bungs, mounted up the HO coils and ordered up a new set of Firecore 50 wires.

The mount is by Kfab (Kasper Fabrication).. Originally designed to run off the 4 rib AC belt which worked flawlessly.
When it came time to replace the balancer, I could not get part numbers to run the 4 rib pulley on the back of a plain race balancer.. I couldnt stomach the idea of having the 6 rib balancer with no belt on it
So, I went with the normal 6 rib and spaced the alternator and tensioner. It seems to be rock solid.
It was brought to my attention that the ZR1 uses a 6 rib AC drive, so that may be an option for some. If there was enough interest in this setup, I could send the dimensions to Kfab to possibly put something together without spacers...
