Default winter turbo project... pics of turbos

Ok here is a repost the build should be finished in a month or so.. 31 roadster on a 32 frame, TCI ifs, and a jaguar IRS, engine is a 93 LT-4 and tranny is a bowtie overdrives level 4 700r4 the lt4 has been under the influence of a procharger for some years now and the blower pulley has been getting smaller and smallet and belt wider and wider, but it just runs out of steam above 5000 rpm, and the boost never goes beyond 8 pounds, even when we are spinning the blower to redline..

so i started to shoot my big mouth in the spring of last year, talking about how great a twin turbo setup would look on the car.. and now he took me up on it, so i am doing the conversion... he has rebuilt the engine for more boost, 8:1 compression dished pistion, big trick flow heads, crower rods and so on... so i ordered a set of schwartz manifolds, a pair of 57-trim garett t4 turbos, turbosmart 38mm wastegates, nuts and bolts...

... Stuff tas arrived!
