Got a little further on turbo hot side.
very nice foxman.. keep it up..
You're going to love it Andy. Guy here in San Diego is putting 570 to the rear wheels with a similiar setup. He hasn't got it to hook right yet, but it's just a matter of time.

Yea I'm pretty sure traction will be an issue. What is his setup. 570 is ALOT for a stock short block ls1

Well got a little further. Under hood wiring is about done. Just need to lengthen wiring For o2s. Now since ac box and blower motor and wiring under dash has been removed I need to put the dash back in. But not sure if I want to stay with the stock dash or make a custom stainless dash.... What do you guys think?
stainless would be awesome cuz im sure the stock dash is a lil rough after 20+ years lol
I dont have all the details, but he blew up the first two motors and decided to forge this one. The first motor was a bad tune, second motor just didn't hold up and the third has only made 12 passes to date. I'll have to get more info on his setup once I see him again at the track.

Well I will be happy with 400 wheel. It's 100% bone stock 4.8l. It can handle more but I will worry about that when I have a built 6 liter. At 400 wheel this car will be fun for sure

Got Wastegate fabed after tig welding and reinstalling all is left is installing obd 2 port, lower radiator hose, fluids, reassemble brakes and bleed them. Missed finishing it before the first but it's almost done
Nice work Andy. Plenty of room at the top, but the engine bay is filling quickly.
