Man You just barely got that alternator in there!

The turbo is awesome. It's gonna be fun to see how you plumb the exhaust.

Are you setting your turbos right on the side or more towards the front of the engine?

Posted via Mobile Device[/QUOTE]

i dont know yet !! i was at my friends shop the other day and he had some ls3 vette exhaust manifolds that look pretty god so i may do that and keep the all around modern factory look , thats why i wanted to use the pulley set up i used its all original looking therefore they will sit somewhere by the midfront of the side of the engine , i could spend the money and buy the nice ones but they will sit to far forward and it will look to custom for the look im looking for , we'll see

Re: 1971 c10 stepside

You can tell these guys that "you are tired" but I only have known you for about 25 years so I know better

I have a feeling that this truck is going to be probably the best vehicle you have ever built just in case this is the last one you are going out with a "Bang"

I don't know what took me so long to find this thread, but it looks like I've got a lot of reading to do. I'm excited to see how the twin turbos come out.

Re: 1971 c10 stepside

Don't mean to bring up bad things, but I wanted to see if you ever got the rear suspension configured correctly.

The rest of the build looks awesome buddy; glad to see you back on it.
