    Very nice build! I have a question for you- do your turbos have the 4" V band turbine outlets? If so, where can I get a v band clamp for that, I got a generic 4" v band clamp with flanges (to build a downpipe) for my T72 and the generic flange is way bigger than the turbo flange. 20130702_180102.jpg #ad

    Mine measure 4.625" which any typical 4" v-band fits.. At least the ones from Vibrant

    Mine always sounds better when I lean it out as well. Really cleans it up and emphasizes the cam

    It works okay.. Wanted a crutch carb.. So I decided this would be the best way for me to go. Trying to get great drivability and make 1200ish horsepower.
    The carb started out as a Quick Fuel blow thru 750 E85.

    Engine bay looks sinister! Would have been a real cool build if you had kept it a v6(I'm partial lol). But like everyone who has pushed those motors say, if you want more than 700rwhp a v8 is the way to go unless it's a 4.5 svo. I almost went v8 myself but am only looking to make 600rwhp or run high 9s with my 4.3 I stuck it out. Really digging the turbos in the grill, think I may do something similar when I buy my 67mm with h cover. Already relocated the radiator so its a clear shot.
