Built myself a front mount!
Removed the lift from my truck and the old twin kit would not fit with the 4x4, plus it had some turbo issues anyway so i decided to build a single setup. Here are a couple pics. Oh and no need to comment on the welds, i know what they look like, ha ha

Not bad! I'd grind those welds a bit and make another pass on them a tad hotter and then call it good, looks like you're in good shape otherwise though.
How's that T-70 and .96 a/r treatin ya? I'm about to put the same turbo on my 5.3 with same exhaust housing.

Almost have it tuned to wide open, had to let off cause it was over boosting a bit. Housing combo seems really good. I actually was just installing the .96 housing when i took the picks cause they accidently sent a .63 with it which was very small - would start to boost at around 1/4 throttle brake stalling! It was pretty cheap to do but it is made of mild steel and is gonna rust quick, especially with our winters and all the road salt, i might just wrap it and hide the ugly, we'll see. I'll try to get more pics.
