alright so i just got working on this thing again. got the springs, push rods, cam in. i started on the blower but got stopped up because i forgot to drill and tap the upper manifold. made a little bracket up to hold the intercooler pump because i got the trick tank going in the spare battery spot. julio don from alky control has got my parts and is rebuilding the pump and updating some other parts for me. just got some spintech pro shootouts and a bunch of 304ss tubing to make the new exhaust. exhaust plans may have changed some but most likely ill be doing dmh cutouts right at the headers, magnaflow cats, x pipe, pro shootouts (its one of their race mufflers, as loud as super pro street but better flow), then out the side. ive got some pictures ill get up but need to get everything on the computer

 

i like the exhaust idea for clearance. lookin forward to some vids

 

Cool man!

Get that blower bolted up and start loving life!

Please post a sound clip of those spintechs, ive been wanting to hear what they sound like.

 

truck should sound wicked with the square tip and blower whine

finally got the blower on. this **** is taking forever when i only get a few hours a week to work on it. nothing is bolt on and go since im changing things as i progress

 

i feel like every time i put in a order at summit racing its over 200 bucks and then i always get something wrong or forget something and a couple days later have to order again... well i got 90 degree fittings for out of the trick tank. problem is before the 90 is a 'pressure' port fitting that i will be using to measure tank outlet temperature. so that added distance puts the 90 straight to the radiator... after finally finding a 150 degree fitting i ordered that up. didnt feel like working outside today so i fabbed up a stainless nitrous solenoid bracket. its going to be a baby 35 shot or so on here but let me know what you guys think. i need to get a longer nitrous line to the nozzle and need some jets. for some reason i dont think it would be happy with the 100 shot jets i have

 

Looks cool bud!

How much boost you think youll be pushin to that 4.8?

She ought to scream!

 

im figuring it to make about 13-14 pulley measures 2.8" i havent seen anyone run that small on a 4.8

 

off topic, but what happened to the boom tube? got any installed pics or videos?

 

havent done the exhaust yet, i gotta get the 4l80 in first because my exhaust on there now has to change to get around the trans. ill surely post up pictures/videos when done!
