Thanks for all the love guys! Figured I should post an update since i've been plugging away the past few days.
Ran to the junkyard the other day and scooped a gas pedal out of a mid 90's burb, and a v8 lincoln ls fan. Got the gas pedal in and cable ran, fan I still have some wiring issues to figure out(relay isn't kicking on). Also cut down my intercooler piping to size for the throttle body side, bead rolled the ends and installed, and got the IAT sensor threads tapped and got the sensor bolted in. Gonna start fabbing up a hotside tonight, once that's done I'll run the other side of the IC piping.
Fabbed up a hotside this week, threw the turbo on and got halfway through making the exhaust this week. Not sure how well the hotside is gonna work over the intake like that, but we'll see, since the truck lays frame it was pretty much impossible to go under, and the fan left barely enough room in front-- too close to the belt for comfort, so I worked with what I had.
Just need to buy some more exhaust pieces, get the BOV and wastegate on, run the rest of the intercooler piping, get the oil lines hooked up, and put my bigger injectors in before I can fire it with the turbo.
