that thing sounds MEAN!!! looks great too, great buy!
too bad you have log manifolds, are you going to stick with those or are you going to get something better?

Car sounds nice, keep that power level under 600hp though, don't want to split the block in half

the log manifold setup is the downfall of this setup. but ill run it as is. it sounds nice now, i hope the turbo's quiet it down a bit. and yes it's stock bottom end 302 (its the good bottom end with the forged internals already though)..as cool and as fast as this will be. i still want another DSM.. if i could have this and a nice GVR-4. id be set for a while. hahaha

That looks like alot of fun. Do you have enough fuel pump/injectors to crank the boost up for 600whp? Them small turbo's will spool pretty quick. That set up is better than the rear mounted setups I've seen. I saw on horsepower tv the rear mounted on a new camaro and they had both cat converters pre-turbo. I was like WTF would you do that for?
