A few minor updates. Lower plenum is ported and polished to a shine, heads are being worked on right now. Fuel tank is back in place and lines run along with rails and injectors installed. Intercooler in place with most of the piping. Tires are on and more fender rolling being done! Turbo's and boost controller should be here within a week or two.

 

WOAH! The intake runners look insane! How / why did you have them square each runner off like that? Any pix of the lower plenum?

 

Wow. The piping looks great!

 

So F*cking jealous! I need a second job!

 

Very nice!

 

This **** is coming together nicely Blue, i can't wait to see her.

 

Looks great man.

 

aweswome build!!!!

 

HR runners are square from the factory.

 

Oh ok I didn't know that! Thanks for the info

 

im envious my driver side piping from gtm didnt fit properly under the headlight had to cut the charge piping and move it into the engine bay

 

did you get the revised piping so you can run your strut bar aswell btw?

 

I'm assuming I've got the revised piping as I was told I could still use the strut bar. The engine is not back in yet so I couldn't tell you if all the piping is going to fit correctly. I'll let ya know.

 

hmm ok! in for pics and results (they told me i got the revised piping too but i didnt >.> they keep beating around the bush when i ask about in in pm/ or call them aswell)

 

Very impressive stuff. I'm fairly new to all this so it's cool see everything.

 

I hear ya brother. It took me almost six months to get my block back from them. I believe their product is top-notch, customer service leaves much to be desired though...

On a good note, I got an e-mail from my shop this morning. They said they recieved the last of the pieces on Monday last week and things are coming together pretty quickly. Hopefully everything will be complete by the time I get home in a few weeks.

I waited around a year for my re-circulating pipes to arrive.

 

any updates in the last month?

 

I just saw it a couple weeks back, and was talking to the builder, it should be done very soon.

 

If its not to late you should look into the cosworth head gaskets. I have the exact same build as you all built by GTM and the stock head gaskets failed after about 7 passes at the track and about 500 miles of regular use. This was at 20psi on the 3071s that you are using making just over 700whp. The cosworth gaskets were not avalible when my build was done but are being installed now.
