I am getting it with the DAE right now, I just don't know if I can afford to get the rest now as well, due to having to build / buy a completely new drive train and power train. We'll see.

Steve, the cell turned out great! Did you send Bill G those pictures. I am sure he would like to see how the final install looks.

I can also see I am going to have to teach you how to whore out the people who are helping.

Don Bailey (DCB Enterprises 708-870-3771) is the BS3 guy. You are in good hands with Don. I have over 80 laps on my Outlaw car with no engine problems (fingers crossed). The engine does not hurt parts unless I do something stoopid. Don's tune up has made the engine relaible and repeatable. Now I need to get the chassis up to par with the engine. Don can tune your street car or your pro mod. He has experience will all things efi. When you buy the efi setup from Don, you get his tech support.

Supernatural turbo is going to set you up with one of their new 88mm street kits. You are the first guy to get this kit and it should be killer. Reed and Matt at supernaturalturbo.com have done a great job with my single turbo race program. I used to get about 10 laps out of a 106mm turbo before it would touch down or just get loose and sloppy. I ran my new turbo from Supernaturlal all season with no issues. I sent it back for inspection. They took it apart and put it right back together with the same parts. It looked great inside!

They also picked up some power with this new turbo. I went from running 190's at Milan to 200+ mph consistently. They are putting a new turbo together for 2009 that is supposed to be even better than the last one. I can't wait!

I hope I am not over stepping here but you have some great companies behind this project and I am sure they appreciate the exposure. If I have offended you I am sorry and you can phuck off!!! :D

Well, we'll see how it goes. Got some great guys in my court. My heads made it to the turbo company in one piece so that's a good start.LOL.

Turbo setup should be complete by the middle of April, they have 90% of the materials / parts there now, so it could be sooner.

Don't get me wrong I have so much damn work ahead of me that it's not even funny, but I will get it done.

What's the hold up on yours?
 
The short block is just about finished and I will have pics up later this week. For now here are some pics of the turbo set compoents coming together. Should have some assembled pics by the end of the week as well.

Compressor housing - Mine is the one in the middle

How many sets of headers are you making? :-)

LOL..

They are building 3 sets from what you see in that picture. He still has to modify the inlet to add the carbon-fiber inlet bell to the comressor housing. The billet back plate is not shown in the picture, but that will help take weight out of it. Should be pretty cool when its all done.
