Total time, without any experience doing this sort of stuff, 4 hours.

Thats good info! I was curious on how much I would need?

So two 2x2 sections will be plenty?

Entire block is black.. another manifold thats getting modded for this is also black.. i like black bays

Yeah, you will have some left over. I did small 2x6 strips throughout the areas that were complicated.

I can't believe its been almost 5 years (Pg.4) since I last posted in this thread... Geez this is an old one.

landins13 · 03-06-2012, 07:49 AM

Coming together. I still need to clean some things up but getting it running for a drift event this weekend is my priority.

You've already got the turbo intake piping made but you can remove that whole big cast turbo intake plenum to clean it up and get rid of the junk OEM bov. In the meantime, block the bov if you haven't. The stock turbo can take it.

You're gonna love this engine.
