Custom IC piping
Alt Relocation Bracket
Comp 224/224 .560/.560 115+2LSA Camshaft
Stock 6.0L #317 Heads
Comp 918 springs
Comp Pushrods
2003+ MLS 5-layer head gaskets
Snow performance Meth injection
F.A.S.T. 60# high imp. injectors
Dual Granatelli fuel pumps
autometer boost guage

Bottom End:

Now for the beginning pictures:

new cam installed and timing chain/gear installed


truck heads and think gaskets installed, new PRs and springs



front plate area cutout to expose FMIC


New Boost guage installed in my tri-pod pilliar with Oil preas, Trans Temp, and Boost (going to replace oil with fuel preas soon)


Engine complete, has headers on it just so i could crank it up and check for leaks before the turbo goes on.


Turbo hotparts 1 (PTK)


Turbo hotparts 2 & downpipe


Intercooler (31x12x4):
