Here are a couple of pictures. I picked up the vacume block from a local place. Its pretty nice. If you are using the vacume brakes it comes with a T that fits into the stock vacume line going to the booster, and has five ports for vacume. And here are a couple of the charge pipes.

Well I guess I will give a little update. After getting the truck started I had an oil leak on the passengers side. I thought it was the valve cover spacers or the valve covers. After pulling them several times and changing the gaskets it was still leaking. I finally found it. The welds for the bracket on the dip sticktube broke and oil was coming out through the holes that left.

I drove the truck today after fixing that, and I have oil going past the seals on the turbo. The exhaust is smoking like a freight train and there is oil in the compressor too.I'm honestly ready to set the bitch on fire!

I'm going try a restrictor on the turbo. Hopefully I don't smoke it. And so you know it is a -3 feed with a -10 drain.

Wasn't it smoking in your last set-up?
