Turbo clears the stock hood and should make for a nice simple fender dump

Thats about were I am at right now. Still have to do the following:
1) finish the manifold
2) Decap truck injectors
3) Install valve springs
4) Build IC piping
5) Install wiring
6) Install fuel pump
Thats the short list for now, I now im missing a ton of stuff.

The only reason we did, was he was sold out on the older style at the time.

The truck injectors dont fit in the ls1 intake manifold. I tried :'(
I cant believe you got that manifold and tb for 50 bucks man that's a hell of a steal.
The truck manifold actually makes a little bit more power if it will fit.
I cant believe how well that motor fits in that beast. That car is going to be a blast.

I havent tried the injector yet, but saw someone on the sloppy page do it. I guess theres one way to find out. This is easier to work on then the old red block :noel:
