I didn't quite get finished today, but did get the engine compartment pretty much buttoned up (still may shorten a couple of vacuum hoses and clean it up a little better). My Brother did the electrical for me which you'll see. Tomorrow I'll be taking off work to get finished up. Still need to install the Heat Exchanger, Trans. Cooler and E- Fans + upload the new tune from Zippy...should take about 6 hours I'm guessing.


Still have not received the ARH'S and will need to get them installed once they arrive (hopefully this week). Here's a few more progress pics and one with my Brother Ralph.

Looks great.

That blower pulley is a damn dinner plate haha. You're gonna want to get your wideband installed before you push it too hard though... so its a good thing. I wonder how much boost you will see from it as it sits.

I'm a little jealous. I want a tvs 2300/Whipple 2.9 so bad I can taste it!

Thanks...can't wait to fire it up tomorrow. I thought I would be able to finish it up today but only got to work on it a couple of hours. I did get the efans and wiring harness installed, and pump for the heat exchanger installed. Tomorrow will be mounting the tru cool max and heat exchanger.

Yeah, it comes with a 3.8" pulley which, I hear is about 6psi but we'll see. I'm picking up my gauges at the post office tomorrow morning as they tried to deliver when I wasn't home today. At least I'll be able to get the gauges installed too tomorrow.
