started on the twins tonight, ill get some piping tomorrow to start on my cold pipe and hot pipe. started by flipping my manifold

one i got the housing positioned where i wanted it i decided how im going to route my intake pipe. this is temporary until i build my one piece.

although i have the primary set where i want it i cant decide how i would rather do my cold pipe. clock my housing to where i can build the tradition 3part 90* or a single 90*.

i also have a problem on my hot pipe im thinking a slightly tilted 3" 90* vertical into another pointing down into the exhaust housing its a very tight fit so im limited on options

this is the distance off the block

Great project ! I had a 63 2wd Burb and this is what I had wanted to do with it. Looking forward to more.

I know the feeling with tight space issue. here is a pic with my hot pipe i only had ~4.75"

you can bring your hot pipe out straight out to the passenger side of the secondary with an 90(going forward) sloped into the primary.

Been awhile since I posted he is the update. Been busy with work and school. I ordered piping last night also new pump and lines for FASS. All should be here by the weekend to get her ready to fire up.

Made some progress tonight. Got the hot pipe tacked together. I'll do the cold pipe and also the turbo support brackets in the morning.

Piping is now done. I'll pick up the stuff this week to do the exhaust. Still debating on single stack or coming out in front of the rear passenger tire.

Built my new radiator brackets today, the old ones set the radiator about a 1¾" to low with my electric fan. It caused it to be way to close to the HB.

Also put some heat wrap on my hot pipe and started the downpipe.

Because of me not knowing if I won't to run the stack or exhaust out the side I haven't finished it

Also sent my FASS pump to the company Friday morning to get the spring pressure changed and a different motor. Going to try and hold 60-70psi since I have a 160 pump. When they get the FASS Tuesday we will decide what to set the pump at. I also don't know what i am going to do for a alternator bracket on the bottom side.

Got my FASS back and mounted. Also pulled all the old power wire out to redo. Pulled the fuel cell from the bed so I can have another bung welded to the tank. One for the FASS return and injector return. Picked up my extra oil pan so I can weld my oil return fitting. I also started some of my powder coating on some small parts and de-bagded my turbos
