Moved the meth controller into the fuse panel, looks much cleaner now.

Also played around with the boost controller. Thinking of making a box to mount it right here, but figured it would be much cooler to knock out the driver placed middle A/C vent and stuffing it in there. Thoughts?

And the shortblock will ship out next Tuesday. Super stoked about that!

On a side note I'm getting a little crazy with this. I ordered a set of MAST Black Label large bore LS3 heads with 1:8 YT's. Total valve lift now is going to be .689/.689 :o

Also if there are any mods in here can we get a title change to "Gray Ghost turbo 427 LSX build"? I sure would appreciate it!
Sorry just seen this.

Diggin the fuel setup, do you plan on bypassing the FPCM entirely?

Lol what I mean is rather put the boost controller in the A/C vent or in the center section?
