    Hey Vincent this is Chris from Kansas. Hows it going? I got some nitrous going on my car to keep me content till I can afford a blower or turbo.

    Are you doing a blowthrough setup? PM or email me some more info.

    Still making progress, I've spent a lot of time modifying the stock 84 tank, building a baffle inside, fitting a 255lph pump on a stock pickup with my 84 level sensor, welding a 8an bung for the feed and 10an for the return.

    I also received Steeda alum. caster plates and had many parts painted, brake booster, pulleys and brakets.

    I've used the migwelder at first and then covered it with JB weld to be sure everything is leaktight

    the baffle inside the tank to help the fuel to stay near the pump:

    hey bo, fyi, there's 2 more of these turbos in the classifieds for $150, I figured you'd be interested in a back up or two!

    I am no part affiliated in the sale or purchase of the said turbos above......but donations are welcome! ;)

    Great build!!!
