You could also incorporate the correct flange to just bolt your turbo direct and eliminate a leak point. Just a suggestion. Nice progress. Those manifolds stay nice and tucked in close to the block. Sanitary OE look. Your killing it.

dont worry, you will be very involved

ok you are twisting my arm,

started to make the fuel lines and routing them amongst other little things here and there , i tried a few more manifolds but i ended up flipping the vette ones again and i did a little mocking and i'm pretty set on where i want the turbos

Thanks for the info on the fuel lines, I was going to ask the same question

Turbo looks great right there!!!

big_al_71 · 10-05-2013, 09:43 PM

Hey everyone I am typing this with a real heavy heart... Raul's dad was killed last night on his way home from work. He is not going to be on for a while as he is very distraught by this tragedy ...Raul is like a brother to me and I am hurting really bad also as his dad is a great friend to me also. Raul asked me to remind you to truly love your family and friends let them know how much you love them As you never know when It will be the last time you get to see them or talk to them. He spoke with his dad just a few hours before this tragedy we are not sure how it happened but we are thinking he may have fallen asleep or possibly a stroke and he veered off the road and his truck rolled over. Please pray for my brother and his family!!!!!!'

Sincerely

Albert
