www.jrfuller.com/kb.html and look at my old set-up.
It's pretty simple and the hardest part is being patient and doing the oil pan tap correctly. If you have any problems pm me anytime during your install.

Buddy and me found that using an air hammer with a pointed bit makes for the best and quickest method.

That's a pretty good idea.

Unfortunately we thought of it after we had done 70% of the work with a 2lb hammer with no room to swing it...

:-(

The kit is very complete.

Vortech's kit is surprisingly complete... minus gauges off course. I was expecting to run to the store to buy all sorts of bolts and what not... not the case. I have helped install numerous ATP turbo kits on volkswagons and Audis and had to to buy all sorts of extras not included with the kit. I did need to pick up the ford fuel line disconnect and the oil pressure sender socket. Also be prepared to work out the little bugs, like oil feed line leaking, coolant leaks, etc. I am still trying to get the upper radiator hose farther away from the alternator pulley.... its just to close for comfort as well as few other little things. Good luck.
