    twin turbo 383w Pinto build has started

    got the engine in today and some final assembly done tonight. I'll have to relocate the fuel pressure regulator as it's too close to the downpipe and header.

    Car is in getting painted, engine should be done in a couple of weeks. All the piping is welded and coated, the dash is 98% wired and the new loom is built. Over the next month it should be coming together nicely....barring any problems!

    If you go back and look at the pictures, you can see two red bars coming out of the firewall/wheelwell area. They connected to the frame rails (they are cut off now) before the twin turbo setup, i'll reconfigure them to fit again after everything is in its final resting area.

    no, its just the mockup. My engine is built yet, and the car is going in for body and paint at the end of the month. Won't be ready till late spring likely.

    thanks! The hotside will be ceramic coated up to where the wastegates dump into the exhaust (including the turbine housings), the rest will be painted with ceramic high heat paint and wrapped up to the point of being under the car. Jeff

    thanks...most of it has worked out according to plan....but i have been thrown a few curveballs here and there. Three inch exhaust routing in a pinto is not easy to do!

    i'm going slow as well. Should be done for spring....but no biggie if it's not. Doing the turbo thing can be expensive.....especially if you get good quallity parts (wastegates turbos ect) If you thinking about it for the future, make sure you build your engine with all the right parts now...
