Default Another rear mount fool, with pics!

Just thought i'd post up some pics of my new TC78 rear mount setup, still needs to be tuned. I have a lq9 with ls3 heads/intake and a ls7 cam in it right now, im gonna run 5-7lbs. on that motor and then i should have my 370 with p&p l92 heads and pat g/eps turbo cam done very shortly, i wanna run 12-15lbs. on that motor! The setup works pretty good, i havent been able to get in to boost to much yet but it is very reponsive. Still using my water to air ic setup too, that thing works great. let me know what you guys think!

It gives the return oil a place to collect instead of in the turbo housing itself, the scavenge pump works best if the feed line is submerged in oil.
