One thing that i have found that helps a great deal for Fab Shop, Painters, Interior Shops is have every part they will need in advance for that stage of the build.
Here is an example:
Bow-Tie Block - Mock Up
2 Piece Stock Crank
Steff Oil Pan
Lokar or Moroso Dip Stick
CSI Mini Starter
Quick Disconnect Starter Harness
MSD Billet Distributor
Cloyes Timing Chain Adj
Cloyes 2 Piece Timing Chain Cover
Timing Chain Cover Studs
ATI Super Dampener 6 3/8 - Steel - Chevy SB/90* V-6
MSD Crank Trigger
Billet Specialties Tru Trac Serpentine System
Billet Specialties Remote Smooth Power Steering Resivor
Three-vane vacuum pump
Pontiac Heads - Bare
RPM Sheet Metal Valve Cover
Billet Oil Filler Neck
Hogan Sheet Metal Intake
Swivel Thermostat Housing
Thermostat
Throttle Body 75mm
Throttle Position Sensor
Conversion
SS Twin Turbo Headers
Credit Twin Turbo Collectors
180-Degree Bend 2.5" Stainless U-Bend
Stainless T4 Inlet Flange
2.5" Stainless V Band Tube Flanges
GTQ 32, 51 Trim, 58 Tangenal Exhaust Housing
3" Stainless V Band Tube Flange
Turbo Bracket
Exhaust Housing Coating
Turbo Housing Polishing
Oil Drain Back Flange
Oil Drain Gaskets
Turbo Oil Return Lines
Innovative Mini-Gate
Mini-Gate Flange
Mini-Gate Gaskets
Waste Gate Exhaust Piping
--- These are all of the parts i collected before i took the truck to the fab shop for final mock up on the headers. It's hard for the fab guy's to complete things in a timely manor if they spend all of there time sourcing parts. The other benifit is you don't have to pay them "time" to sit on the phone and source your parts. ---
--- This is what the fab shop was going to be doing once they received the truck. ---
Notes:
1. Remount Turbos
a. Make them equal distance forward
2. Mount Wastegates
a. plum exhaust back into downpipe
3. Create Downpipes (o2 bungs - Horizontal location)
4. Redo TB Linkage
5. Upper Radiator Hose
6. Install Oil Fill Cap
7. Smooth Firewall
I can't tell you how much the fab guy's appreciate this and how much time it save's and time equals money.
