    Well as some of you may know I'm going turbo . I was able to trader for most of the parts and will end making a little money when sell the rest. I pieced it together rather quickly, and u have just about everything for the install ready to go. Jason is polishing my l26 intake, and yesturday he drop off my 91k l36 from an fbody. I will end up selling the fbody intake, was going to use but have a different plan now, shh. More will be added as things get put together. Turbo, cam, and tb will be here tomorrow. Motor might end up get an l36 uim while I wait for the l26 polishing to be finished.


    So the motor will be:


    - Comp Turbo CT4 6764 T3 Turbo, 3" Vband.
    - Custom z7 cross over
    - Custom Stattama upper downpipe 3"
    *crossover and downpipe were welded by zzp.
    - polished l26 uim
    - vacuum block with an lines
    - hv3 insert
    - Z7 intercooler pipes
    - Frozenboost A2A Intercooler 31"x12"X3" 2.5" inlet/outlet
    - 3" Catless Vband downpipe, brand new flex piece
    - 3" resonator pipe, reduces to 2.5" were it connects to the Y pipe
    - Stattama bov
    - Tial wastegate MSV vband 38mm (extra wastegate springs will be include, 14.5psi springs are in there now)
    - ported l67 tb with fixed AFC
    - dual valve catch can
    - stage 3 zzp l67 heads with 130# springs
    - comp cam 1.6 roller rockers
    - Stattama stage 2 cam
    - double rollmaster
    - ls7 lifters
    - comp cam stock size pushrods
    - Mls head gaskets .056
    - PRJ Rails Black. Setup for an fuel lines
    - 60lbs Siemens Injectors
    - Racetronics fuel pump


    Heres my big update. Progress has been really slow, work picked up for a few weeks and i had to send out all of exhaust stuff to zzp for them to make my custom 3" upper turbo downpipe. They ran into a few snags and had fix and change my cross over around. But I'm glad I went with them because things would not have fit right when went to install if they hadnt got the parts for the downpipe. Those parts will all be here tomorrow, some other misc stuff will be here beginning of next week, and I still have to meet up with Max for the torque converter before I can put the motor back in.


    I decided to go with 1.6 roller rockers since Max was selling the set i wanted and i already had someone who wanted the 1.7s so I didn't have to pay anything for them.


    Just about everything on the car will AN lines, man those add up quick :roll: . but it will be worth it once its all put together.


    Polishing on the UIM looks great so far but i still need to get it soda blaster which i should have done from the start and saved Jason's arms and sanity.


    So on to some picks...


    What came out, traded the GenV and TOGs for the turbo and ST2 cam.

    Putting this block in, 91K from a '97 Camaro. I will probably be selling the intake.

    Cleaning the block didnt take much. Jason did all the work so it was a breeze for me :lol: .

    You can even see the arrow on the pistons, damn this motor was clean.

    Got the 1.6 rockers in the mail today, second time I've bought them from Max lol.

    To top off the heads.

    AN fittings on the back of the UIM for the vacuum block feed.

    OOO shiny. The L67 adapter is on upside down so i can use the stock l26 EVAP location. I'm hoping this will work.

    Ported L67 TB.

    Got some nice bolts for the sensors.

    OOO shiny turbo

    And to protect it all and let that extra heat out. Thanks Jason's dad!! Its painted now, but I'm waiting till it goes on for those pics.

    As she sleeps at the moment.
