Very nice, you will love it! Only thing I would have done differently is I would have done a set of comp billet oil less turbos so I wouldn't have to drill the panor worry about smoke issues.

Nice car, I am still partial to your old terminator though..:beer:

The "old" terminator is definitely cool....but this car is about to push the coolness factor another notch or two....Kevin doesn't half ass anything I expect this one to be spectacular and exceed what people think a factory 5.0 is capable of. Can't wait to see all this badass new technology and sensory fully harnessed with his tuning and E85 :rockon:

Update 11/12/19 Comp Turbos Suck Ass. So glad I went this direction. Turbonetics have been great and still have no issues years later!!!

Awesome as usual Kevin. That must be a bitch of a job on the floor; exactly why I'm saving to put a 2 post in my garage!
I wish I had the room for a lift. I would have bought one a long time ago. My next house will have one for sure!

Super cool man! I'll be watching........
:beer:

Nice! Another joins the twin turbo club. I welcome you sir!
Thanks man! :beer:

No! It's not! LOL.

Sorry for the delay guys. I was finally able to get a little more work done.

Here are the bulkhead fittings that I am using for the oil drain back.

I drilled a pilot hole first.

Then I used a step down bit to drill the holes.

Then I put them in. They worked great! Here you can see how they look from the inside.

I then reinstalled the oil pan as per specifications as seen here. Ford Service Manuals - IN-VEHICLE REPAIR Pan.pdf

I moved the studded location over one and moved it on the wire harness as well.

Here is the front fitting.

Next up was the drivers side header. I had to move the motor around a little to give me the clearance needed to slide it into place. I also had to take out and put back in all the studs. I was able to reuse all but one. I then torqued them down to specification as seen here.
Ford Service Manuals - IN-VEHICLE REPAIR Manifold - LH.pdf

Back up top it looked like this.

Next up was to install the oil feed fittings for the turbos.

While I was at it I also installed the down pipe for the drivers side while I had the extra room. I just left it loose for now.

Well I ran out of time so this is it for now. I will update as it progresses.
