I am running all BMR Fabrication stuff....came in powder coated red. Steering links are Hotchkis...all great quality stuff! :thumbsup:
Thanks for the compliments! |
Very nice set-up. I am very seriously thinking about putting a blower on instead of my twin turboes. I will be following your build and see how you like it.

I came across this procharger set-up and it was a ridiculous deal I couldn't pass up for brand new. So yea...I'm going backwards a little, BUT I already had headers and need an intercooler regardless so it was a no brainer for me. Plus no concessions will have to ba made anywhere else. Your TT set-up will be sick. I'll dig up a link of someone doing one on Pro-Touring or LS1Tech (can't remember which right now) that has it in the same body style. You can't go wrong with it but I just feel for a cleaner package with less piping (for me) this was the way to go. Plus my 10 sec goal was pretty modest. Good luck with whatever you decide...I should have my brackets sometime next week, since they are ProCharger direct items. Dave |
A bit of updates...had to pull back on the build slightly to get her up and running. Had some issues with the recent hurricane and needed to sell off some of my stuff )Turbo and Procharger) so I wouldn't bang the credit cards...I refuse to spend money on them since I blasted them on my wedding...lol. :fire:
Anyhow, here's where I stand: boxed up the turbo piping for now and threw in a stout Lunati cam, wrapped up a set of fbody headers and switched up to an Autokraft pan. Got the vaporware tank installed with a 5th gen camaro pump and a single line to the front. I used Carl Casanova's tank harness up to the front. Got the PCM mounted and am currently working the rad and fans...bled the brakes...probably forgot a bunch. I will be going back to turbo once I get it running as I have the CTS-V fuel pump in a box on my shelf. I will still have to get Carl's PWM controller for the pump...all in due time. Oh btw, the headers in the pic are for sale because they don't fit with the Autokraft pan unfortunately. As for the color, I am actually thinking of staying with the Saffron yellow...it is so sleeperish and ugly I love it!!! Enjoy the pics!!! http://i908.photobucket.com/albums/a...1/IMG_9410.jpg http://i908.photobucket.com/albums/a...1/IMG_9408.jpg http://i908.photobucket.com/albums/a...1/IMG_9413.jpg http://i908.photobucket.com/albums/a...1/IMG_9414.jpg http://i908.photobucket.com/albums/a...1/IMG_9417.jpg http://i908.photobucket.com/albums/a...1/IMG_9423.jpg Here's and interesting fact...because I upgraded the rear in my 84 cutlass race car a while back from a 7.5" rear to a 8.5" rear I had to shorten the driveshaft one inch. Well, it just so happens that because I am using the 4L60e and a 12 bolt rear the stock length drive shaft from an a body is shortened 3 inches and is exactly the same size as the one I had!!! Direct drop in! Curious thing though is that I cannot seem to locate a decent set of u Joint girdles...the jegs ones don't even remotely fit. Any assistance would be appreciate there. http://i908.photobucket.com/albums/a...1/IMG_9427.jpg FAT MEATS...and ugly yellow....LOVE IT!!! http://i908.photobucket.com/albums/a...1/IMG_9431.jpg http://i908.photobucket.com/albums/a...1/IMG_9434.jpg http://i908.photobucket.com/albums/a...1/IMG_9436.jpg Goodies from PSI Conversion... http://i908.photobucket.com/albums/a...1/IMG_9439.jpg http://i908.photobucket.com/albums/a...1/IMG_9441.jpg http://i908.photobucket.com/albums/a...1/IMG_9442.jpg http://i908.photobucket.com/albums/a...1/IMG_9443.jpg Plan to fire her up this weekend....thanks! |
