It's in!
 

The motor is finally in the car! I should have the Turbo and all the rest of the "Stuff" in tomorrow! I hope to fire it on Saturday or Sunday! It has been almost a year since I started this ground up resto! Not bad considering I took the winter off! Now it's time for a cold beverage:D

Procrastinator.

Pictures, pictures!

Details!!!

Which turbo? What kind of fuel system? Other upgrades???

--DD

It is a homebrew system based on a Garrett T-3 Turbo with an internal wastgate set at 8psi. I'm using a Weber 44 sidedraft carb with water injection. The motor is a 2056 with a stock cam, lifters and 7.8:1 compression. If all goes well she may run today! I will be recording the first start with a digital video camera, we'll either get a good laugh, a cry or a coooool!
