I've been on a bit of a break, doing what I can to research engines and forced induction. After a few weeks deliberating I picked up an iron block 5.3l engine. I did this because I am learning on this project, have never opened an engine before and decided a turbo project would be the most fun and best opportunity for me.
The 5.3l is very common here so if I happen to make an explosive error another won't be hard to find. I got my hands on a very good one and it fits!

I am trying to keep the weight behind the front axle so I can attempt to maintain decent balance front to rear.
The turbo's are going to be tricky to squeeze in there, but I've got a few ideas.
The alternator has to move, I have to find an accessory drive that will allow me to keep A/C and move the alternator low.
