    I ended up going with a ponydown turbo kkt that turned out fantastic. I think that is the second gen 417 stereo kit. He has a more updated version now. Chris at Lentech was excellent to work with. I am glad I ended up going with them and have also seen a lot of positive feedback on them. I...

    That sounds like an awesome setup. I wish you could still buy the kennebell sbf kits. Do you know how much power you are making? My original plan was to go with the cnc 195 because I thought it was the biggest I could use with the header flange on my turbo kit, but I was wrong. I'll still be...

    Gotta love crap customer service. Now that I pulled the trigger on the Lentech and told PA to cancel my order they all of a sudden have a build date for me. It is funny how I patiently waited for 15 months with no answers to a build date and then all of a sudden they have one when they see the...

    Well after waiting for 15 months for a performance automatic 4r70w I cancelled the order today and switched to a Lentech 4R70W Strip Terminator. I am going to swap my terminator x to a x max to be able to control the transmission. I am also about the pull the trigger on a Circle D torque...

    I just pulled the trigger on a dart shp block. I probably won't have the car back from the body shop for a couple months so this will be the perfect time to build the engine. I am so excited to finally get this ball rolling.

    Engine bay and interior are fully gutted including the dash . She will finally be off to the body shop in the morning. Once I get her back I will install the Maximum Motorsports max grip package, fuel system, and start the ground up new wiring. I still need to source my engine and transmission...

    lol I originally bought it when I was planning to rebuild my stock 302 and run it until I could get a 363 together but I never ended up doing that. Does anyone have opinions on a good turbo blanket? I am looking at a universal T4 from PTP or buy a custom fit for my specific turbo from Funk...

    My Maximum Motorsports roll bar finally came in. I am going to test fit it and wrap up a few under hood items and she will be off to finally have the frame rail repaired. I'm really looking forward to getting it back so I can dive in to getting everything put back together.

    The kit builder runs a very similar setup and told me he runs the .81 and has full boost by 3100 rpm. I know I will be leaving power on the table but I want the fast response. This won't be a drag car.
