Re: Another turbo ls
Are you using the Fahler turbo manifold?

The timing of your post could not come at a better time as I am currently planning where to run components, and the hot side, for phase 2 of my build.

Looks nice snuggled in there.

Nice choice on the 4l80E. The Holly system you have, is it the one that will control the tranny also? I got that system and it is awesome! I got with a gentleman named Andrew from Missouri. He set my system up and it is awesome, just a note.

Mac valve setup is in place and plumbed (waiting on a dome pressure sensor). Power steering delete alternator bracket works nicely

Re: Another turbo ls
Over 40 years ago, I dragged a '56 Chevy 210 4 door wagon out of the desert. It looked like your pic above when I was done with it. I painted it, put in AC, upholstery, and a 305 SBC with a B&M trans in it. Wife wanted it gone, and I met her demand.

If it had a turbo LS instead of a 305 she'd probably have let ya keep it
