    Slowly making progress, had to do some cutting to make this crap fit. Decided pushing the turbos fwd through the front grill was the best option to give me a few more inches to fit the exhaust fuel pump, fuel cell, remote filter etc... Had to order up some 3.5" mandrels to complete the head to turbo connections which should be at the house by the time i get home home today! 3.5" might be a touch large for hot side but header primary's ended up at 2.5" to keep form shrouding the exhaust port so 3.5" made more sense then 3". Being its on methanol the exhaust volume should be a lot higher than a gas motor anyways..

    I think where most of you have your problems with all of this, is the fact that you really don't fully understand the internal workings and dynamics of the common combustion engine. There is no magic tune up, and motors are stupid. The only time a motor will complain is when something is wrong.

    Haha had to, go fast cheap my friend the less I spend on body/paint the more $$$ for parts that make it go fast. It was all beat up anyway far from a nice piece.

Should have all the fab/fitment crap wrapped up this week Have to yank the motor back out, do some welding and bracing on motor plate tabs etc.. clean everything up, assemble the new trans and the stuff it all back in.
