Looks just like mine most the time... somebody always tries to clean it up and it takes for ever to find anything.

rk_2000_Z/28 · October 16th, 2009, 06:45 PM

Looks awesome man. Trap door mod is a great idea. That's what we ended up doing when we put the Racetronix kit on the SS for the 150 shot.

Ace417 · October 17th, 2009, 11:57 AM

ill be honest in most of the pictures all i saw were pretty shiny things but it looks cool!

Hey Nestle Qwik,
I've been following this build and haven't seen any progress for a couple of weeks. Boy those pics bring back memories of the good old days of spending hours cranking on a pushrod V-8. My first motor build was 30 years ago and was a 318 in and old Duster "Twister" when I was 15 and had not a care in the world. Now I have a wife, new house, new baby, and a Modular motor to boot. I don't have the time to do much wrenching any more and actually contract out some of my work on my car. I am living vicariously through you and this thread, so post up some more pics on your progress brother!

will do 10-4! thanks!

I love an old dodge small block, a buddie has a older dart with a wild little 340

I've been lazy

but there is burnout vid somewhere on here of it

Cricket · November 26th, 2009, 01:16 PM

damn your still hanging around here man? Haven't heard from you in a long ass time.

qwik48r · November 27th, 2009, 02:55 PM

haa and heres the update, FINAL build

drop it all together

the trick is to bolt everything up... then but the entire drivetrain on the cherry picker and slide it foward as you lift with the charry picker... done right (like this) and the K will slide right up and into position via the wheels... then take the wheels off, jack the entire assembly up with floorjack and bolt it up.

and its in

had to make some coil brackets... no biggie and they look better.. these are the truck coils from earlier. Same ones JPC used on there last turbo mustang

"SUPER SOLDER"... teaching a newb

finishing intercooler bracket...

complete

no ground clearence

pretty little tc78

RetroGT2006 · December 6th, 2009, 05:25 PM

Badass dude, What PSI is the turbo at? I may have missed it, and what size turbo?

qwik48r · December 8th, 2009, 09:45 PM

8.5 in the vid... prolly creeped to 9..

its been to 14 so far... stock bottom end :O

its an off the shelf 78mm turbonetics unit. its just a "tc78" with a 68mm F-trim .96 t4 hotside. WAAAYYY overkill for this little motor.. but it likes it for some reason so I just keep abusing it.. thanks

BadBlackGT · December 8th, 2009, 10:07 PM

Ew... f-body.... haha jk, thats a damn badass car you've got there. Nice work.

qwik48r · December 8th, 2009, 10:20 PM
