Twin turbos will be added, but there is still a lot of research to do....

Next up was building a fixture/jig out of 60' of 2.5 x 2.5 .187 wall tubing.

All braced up and getting rid of the rot.

More on the bellhousing/adapter combo... Not going to use the factory Corvette torque tube because of size limitations (Too bulky and would have to be shortened anyway). The adapter & carrier bearing will make it possible to use a slip yoke driveshaft instead. The bearing was purchased at a specialty race shop in Portland.

Hopefully the pics will make more sense.
