Nice build! I would aslo like to know what wilwood calipers you went with for the front. My rear end is currently getting reworked for disc brakes and 6 piston wilwood calipers. I cant build any boost at the line cause my brakes are crap. I cant hold anything past 2200rpm or so. Keep the pics flowing!

I made the wilwoods on the truck now but I'm switching to a 6 piston set from little shop of horrors. Email them and ask about there front brake kit it is awesome they convert the front into a hub assembly. Not too bad of a price either 2200$ and thanks guys I'm ready to hear this thing come to life. Then tear all apart again to get painted, powdercoated, or polished.

Not much right now. I sold the gt4788 and bout a new comp turbo 91mm tripple ball bearing billet wheel. Couldn't pass up the deal. Ordered wheels just waiting in them to show up. Is really like to fire it up and drive it before it goes to paint to see if the converter is right or if I gotta send it back. It will start to look pretty now. I'll get some more pics in the morning

This morning came and went haha sorry. I got a little wiring done. It's almost complete, just a couple more sensors. The only wiring you will see is from the tps and iac sensors and I've tried to come up with a way to hide it but no way it's gonna happen but will look super clean. I have days and days into wiring this engine.

Wiring looks super good man. All the time into the harness will be worth it. What kind of loom did you use. I'm trying to find something to use on my harness.

So is that stuff a wrap around sleeve or do you buy it big enough to push over the connectors?
