    Are your manifolds facing foward?

    I thought about that idea but didnt want to bother the ac.

    there's no room to face them forward if you wanna keep ac, I think there was clearance issues on both sides actually, I'm gonna build a set of forward facing headers to clear the ac and ps later down the road.

    youre missing the turbine housing. im going to be running the same turbo. i have part number: 156-177208, a .91ar... calculations are saying 15psi or so for 500rwhp, but i think it will be closer to 12psi.

    its a shame the moderators over here treat me like a red headed step child, the guys at moddedmarauders.net seem to like the build thread....

    i love you seneca, zack, and justbob!

    I can tell you from much past experiences building Turbo setups that .91AR housing is going to be way too big for a 281 cube modular motor , with an AR housing that big your going to have a boat load of turbo lag , and you will need a 4-5K torque converter too get the car to move.

    The .81 fits these motors just right. Doesn't destroy the tires off the line like a .68 and doesn't take power naps like the .96
