How does the Hot side piping react when it get's really hot. I would imagine with the different metals and their expansion and contraction properties that they might put some stress on the welds no? Nice work!

Well as of right now i havent had a problem with the manifold welded to steel pipe. The pipe welded to the manifold is 1/8th thick. And the pipe welded to the T4 turbo flange is almost less than 1/4 thick. I think i shouldnt have any problem with this in the future it seems to hold on pretty good together, here is closer pic of my manifold welded together.

Nice turbo kit, I don't see a thing wrong with it. I would run a cam with 220* or less, Both those cams are too big for my taste.

stock48, you think this cams are to big for my 370ci. forged motor. I was thinking they were about the pretty good size for this engine, i dont know but i always liked cams with high lifts on them. But thats just me. well its hard to deside on wich cam i should go with, between this two cams.
