    Looking good! Where's that downpipe going? What headers are you using? Love those valvecovers!

    I am actually turning the turbo around so that the down pipe( 4 inch) runs down right above the passenger side valve cover.Intercooler, will be mounted with some custom brackets right infront of the radiator. I will have pictures of that soon. I using the ford racing headers, They just barely fit. I chose the valve covers since my color scheme is black and red, all the turbo piping is going to be jet hot coated in black.

    I did have to remove the sway bar. The was interference with some of the piping. For now it will be OK. I'm saving up for mustang II front end. :2thumbs:

    Does the swaybar make any difference with the IFS kit?

    More that likely DFI gen 6. You have mega squirt ? Hows that working for you ? Do you have any pictures of your 68' ?

    Well it's not working right now. I am still in the hellhole known as project car. I am hoping to get it up an running within the next few months but I have been saying that for years now. I made the mistake of "Just gonna fix this little floor pan rust" and that turned in torque boxes, rockers, framerails,toe boards. I am hoping to shoot some primer on it within the next month or 2 and then continue on with the turbo fab(cold side). The weather here was just so crappy all winter I couldn't get out in the garage.


    Someday it'll run.

    As for the pics there isn't much right now worth shooting a pic of, but once it's in primer I'll shoot some.

    Got a pic of the support bracket off the car? Did you build it? Is it part of the hot side pipes or sandwhiched between the housing and hotside flange? Sometimes I wish I would have gone the 302 route. OTS headers would make it sooo much easier. I have not even started the turbo fabbing yet, but everything is tighter with a 351.
