Thanks. The turbos will be facing each other just above the motor. The downpipes will be exited through the fender. I want as much turbo whistle as possible.

Truck construction should be done by Sunday, then my builder is going on vacation for a few days. When he comes back he'll tune it.

Finished up a lot this weekend. By next weekend it should have a tune on it and been driving. Enjoy.

 

Made a jig where the turbo flange needed to be in relation to the header flange:

All welded up and wired wheeled for a shiny appearance:

Tacked up the passenger side manifold. No more support bar needed:

From what I can see, you can still fit them tubbed. We didn't need to move anything other than a few hoses. I am running fender dumps so my exhaust is going right out the side.

Fuse box is in the way on the drivers side and coolant tank is in the way on the passenger side on my truck. We are going to attempt a whipple supercharger on it though

Ahhh gotcha. A supercharger will def fit then. Turbos can go anywhere if you have a good fabricator. I've had superchargers and turbos are leaps and bounds better in terms of reliability and power delivery if setup properly.

Wow. The works that goes into this is real dedication. Can't wait for some videos of this beast!
