• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

Question... NO

I tried that scotty, I didnt like the outcome, maybe because its super flex 1/0 and not like the video with more solid strand.
 


I couldnt tin the 1/0 because the so many strands. It wouldnt stay tight no matter how hard I squeezed or twisted it, so then it wouldnt fit in the lug. Yes flux on everything. Wire in, solder then tried making a little solder pot in one lug then jammed the wire in. I didnt like the out come of any of it.
 
sucks. use shrink tubes on the set screw type too, you dont want air to get to the wires, or they tarnish. aka dry wire. im not a fan of them set screw types at all.
 
Ya I got shrink tubes and dielectric grease on hand, she will be sealed to the best of my ability, set screw is the best I can do without going nuts.

I blame chris99gtp for making me start this project since he was looking for headers and we all know I had them on. As of right now I am the slowest L67 car out there, 140whp ftw!

Looks dam good for not being cleaned since I put it back on 3.5 years ago!

Headers out, you can see my flex pipe delete and replaced with a 3" 45°. I expected the rear to be a pita since everyone cries about it. I cant comment on the install because I put the header in the bay before I dropped the engine in. Take it out I just unbolted and lifted it straight out........

Test fit the turbo, **** thats tight in there. Removed the pcm so the turbo would be flat. Maybe I need to move alot of things this way and that, its tight by the brake booster, valve cover, and 2 pipes and the trans harness.

haha ya tell me about it, tmw is wiggle pipe time, gain as much clearance then tighten down, then play with bumper cover removal, oh joy
 


Monte brake booster...flexible trans dipstick tube...turbo blanket and exhaust wrap the doodoo out of the downpipe. Should be good, ya?
 
I wont touch the booster, if I wanted that project I would do alot more under the hood. Have the turbo blanket, perhaps I shall wrap the downpipe then... maybe, I will think of something!
 
Man that black gtp looks fantastic. Looks like you got some work done too. Thanks again!
