    More Images and update

    I am thinking on running this same setup. What is the verdict ?

    Also any more images of the set up, love to see how the exhaust is run. The manifolds as well.

    interior together, floorboards sprayed with rubber coating.



    turn signal stalk, shortened
    wiper arm deleted.



    Cheap and effective gauges from summit. Approx $15 each. I made the delete panels from free plastic scraps. Covered them with the 3M? Carbon Fiber film.

    The rods were broken from oil starvation to the front cylinders. Only the front of te motor was dry. Engine is not rebuilt, new headgaskets and seals. Didnt want to dump too much money and find i dont like the setup.

    Very interesting. I'm a big fan of Windsor v8's, we've built some crazy ones in the past. But I've yet to do a turbo one.
    So did you replace this motor or did you get it rebuilt? I'd like to know more about that. I'm not surprised you've broken your standard cast rods even with the arp studs. How much power were you making?
