So how much power are you making with the new Billet Turbos?
Are you happy with the BigStuff3?
If you were to do it again, would you stay 4.6 or go 5.4?

Also, bad ass build :banana:

I dont know, I never put the car back on the dyno. The BS3 has never let me down, no complaints at all. 4.6 is more then enough to me.. I never even wanted a 7sec capable car.

Car is still down waiting to finish up the 25.5, eventually it will get done.

Not sure if this was answered, but I couldn't find it.

Did you make those coil mounts?

If so, how much to make another set?

Great build BTW........

Some guy on Ebay makes them, if you call BS3 they know his name/number.

Did a quck search on ebay and found them........thanks!!

I forgot to ask, but which coils did you end up using (LS1, LS2, truck coils)?

The more research I do, the more confused I get......

Could be too lite with twins though?

Not sure if I posted this here, I was bored the other night and made this video. My first time making a video like this.
[nomedia="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Do9sKx__Nk"]YouTube - Twinbullitt The Beginning[/nomedia]

So finally going to get the cage done. I will be towing it to Fabtech in the valley for the 25.5. This is the first time the car has had to be out sourced, but Jaime does great cage work. Here is the departure pictures, should have her back in action in time for NMRA. I decided to pull the motor to re do the firewall, and since there will be lots of cutting/welding/grinding I feel safer with the motor out of the car.

Car is at the paint shop now for new paint/blue flames.
Put the newly powder coated upper/lower intake back on the motor. I like it....

The crank bolt is the other ones are from IW. Those will be replaced when my IW mandrel cog drive arrives to run the fuel pump.

The belt driven fuel pump to get ready for the E98 fuel.

Thanks. Yeah bracket is from Aeromotive, we will add another one to be safe. I will put up pics of the mandrel pulley set up when it arrives. I decided to run the fuel cell up front now.... less hose and headaches.

Mounted the regulator in the valley of the block.
