Can you spot the down pipe?  The first speed bump might be an issue..

Updated Jan 10:  4"downpipe, 2 row aluminum radiator w/electric fan, soon to be ceramic coated pipes, transbrake with 3500 stall convertor.  Wastegate set to 7psi but can boosted to 21 psi.  But for the chevys im gonna kill 7 psi is plenty...

Updated Mar 22:  Pipes all welded, wastegate installed, still need ceramic coat and oil lines installed before first start!  Gimme about a week, still need battery trunk mounted, oil lines, valve seals (maybe), 3 inch cowl hood still needs a hole cut in it (sad, I know) and tuning.

Update Apr 11: I started the monster up without muffler and the dang thing fired right up, even after sitting all winter.  You can hear the boost building at 3000 rpm, the exhaust gets a mean tone in it.  Just gets me tingly.  Got some oil leaks and taking time to spray the headers and pipes with ceramic spray paint to cut down on rust.  By Apr 18, I should be driving and tuning, stay tuned.

Update May 17: Issue with idle today and mix today, despite no changes to carb.  Ran on bypass, highway, and heard the whistle.  But had issue with oil leak.  Friday we will see what she will do, at OC dragway! (hopefully)
