70 duster getting some boost..

-
outstanding work. when i get to mine you willing to help? i am the guy with the blue dart from the cert day at the strip.....
 
it is stainless tubing and yes will be tigged.. and yeah im willing to help.. me and richard took the dragster out for the first time last weekend.. got to finish my licensing passed this weekend..
 
its actually 1 1/2 which actually measure out to be a hair under 1 3/4 inner diameter 304 stainless schedule 10 butt weld fittings.. they are really nice to work with and are nice and thick so i wont have to worry about it cracking or falling appart like thin cheap manifolds you can buy.. i just bought a bunch of 90s and some straight.. cut the 90s to the desired angle and they work great..
 
made more process on the build.. the passenger side turbo manifold is tacked and ready to be finish welded.. now its just the down pipe and y pipe then the turbo fab is finished..

changed up the turbo, bought a s480r race cover 1.32 t6 turbo yesterday.. cam will be changed as well to a billet hydraulic roller specs are yet to be decided
 
the turbo has arrived.. the race cover makes it a touch bigger so i needed to move the turbo foward a little..

working on doinf the wheel tubs and sheet metal in the trunk before it gets the cage done..
 
on the manifolds? i set the collector where i wanted in and built each tube to it.. in the car. the motor is is just a empty block and emty trans case sitting in it for mock up..
 
thanks for the kind words.. motor is out now im shifting my focus to getting the car ready for paint and body work.. getting rid of a bunch of holes on the engine bay and finishingmup the trunk pan and wheel tubs.. then it will go to get a 8.50 cage then off to the body shop where it will be for a while..
 
picked up a R block.. and going to look at a windberg billet crank with some pankl rods, see if i can snag those up for a decent price..
 
Found ya. Amazing fab work. Keep up the pics.
