Sweet car, and the build is looking awesome. I really like that collector with the WG tubes cast in, that's dope!

Maybe if I make it to the shootout this year I'll come say hi and check it out

Thank you. I specially wanted the collector to use the T fittings. Less welds and great flow.

The engine side had a poly mount but the trans mount was still stock. Luckily a 1G DSM insert was the same size.

Front end bent up. 1 5/8" 4130

Frontline fab valve cover found its way on. What a nice piece.

A couple more parts rolled in. Just waiting on a some items from DSS and the drivetrain will be complete.

Racefab tube rear subframe and KLM 1000HP SFWD style FMIC with shrouded radiator

Putting together some poly roll stops using some scrap 4130 for the rear engine mount.

 

[b00stedtalon2]

Front and rear mounts are finished. I had to add my own mount to the subframe for the rear. The factory front and rear roll stops are under the car attached to a north south bar (3 mounts on transmission). I'm now running 3 on engine to make it easier for pulling the transmission.

Carbon DSS driveshaft with Sonax yoke.

Test fitted the FMIC

Awesome build man!!

Started on the manifold today and got the runners tacked up. Sch40 pipe with bsfab t4 divided collector. I don't own a vertical band saw yet to get crafty with my own collector.

Got some of the upper radiator support done today. It is removable with quick release pins that have a shear lead of 12000lbs.

Rear end bolted up.

Awesome pictures and build. I'm excited to see what you end up with.

 

[b00stedtalon2]

Had to helicoil the head in a few spots. I installed SS studs from www.ssstuds.com

Finished welding the manifold

Fabbed up the UICP. I haven't decided what i'm doing for the LICP yet. Pipes and intake manifold will be coated wrinkle black.

Looks great, love everything so far. I have a question, is there anything supporting the turbo besides the exhaust manifold?

Thank you! Nothing supports the turbo but the manifold. If it was built using thin wall stainless instead of sch pipe I would consider using a maven performance turbo mount.

 

[Devilsfutbol17]

Awesome, thanks for the response!

 

[b00stedtalon2]

Slowly knocking more tasks off the never ending list.

 

[DetroitDSM]

Great work

Looks really good

I see that you had to step your FP oil filter so that it didn't hit the head. I had to do the same thing to mine.

Yeah. I think they were originally intended to be inline and not directly on the head.

 

[b00stedtalon2]

Everything in the engine bay is mostly buttoned up. A couple small things to wire up and it should be ready to start.

Very clean Scott as always. Interesting way to mount the trans cooler. Are you going to use any kind of spacer say 1/2" between cooler and body?

So pretty
