    I looked at my buddies glide and found out it would not work at this moment. I'm planning on running what i have for the rear suspension for now to keep the cost down 😞 But once I do like you did Zach build my 6.0 and make it more of a track car than i will go with a glide. But now i have made progress. Got the old a/c heater box out and installed the non a/c box. Got the exhaust manifold's modified today and cut the idler arm bracket out and installed a plate over the hole. Also started the hotside exhaust pipe and kinda got the downpipe figured out. Hopefully have the hotside done this week.

          It's a gt-45 ( 70mm ) if i remember. It was free i'm planning on upgrading after it get this set-up done. I started looking at an S400 75mm with a T-4 flange. But i'm open to suggestion's

            With a relatively big cube motor like that, I'd go with a T6. It leaves you a lot more options in the future if you decide to upgrade.

                I really don't know if I will have the room for a T6 unless i cut into the fender well but then i might not have room around the hood. It's kinda tight around the turbo right now plus i will not have room for the down pipe. We were able to get 3.5 inch to fit right and i really don't want to cut into the frame that much. I even think 4 inch would be tough to do.

                  well not much progress as of late. just a lot of ordering of parts. but i can say christmas is going to come early this year as everything i ordered should be here by next tuesday. then next week while i'm on vacation i will work on the fuel system and possibly pull the motor out and swap out the oil pan and weld in the drain for the turbo. i also might start some of the wiring

                    Well christmas came early for me (transmission, most of my fuel system part's, starter, and misc part's i ordered). plus my buddy got his converter back and his engine for his race car. so it has been a good week for both of us 🙂

                      Fuel system is almost done just have the cross over left to do. Will get that done tomorrow and then pull the motor out and swap out oil pan's and work on the oil drain for the turbo. Than after my torque converter show's up put it all back together and figure out radiator hose's and heater hose's

                              Got my b.o.v. today. But i was able to drive it before i got home and saw that it showed up. Car run's really good considering it's not tuned at all. I also have traction issue's as soon as it start's to boost the tire's break loose.

                                      I really have no idea on how much power it is making yet. Only seeing about 5-6 psi right now. Yes my name is Doug
