Actually the trans is a broken trans, it is in place there for mock up. A Shep Racing dogbox will be replacing it. The Engine is also being replaced with a beefier one. The only this that motor has is a wiseco/eagle combo which will not take the abuse I will be putting to it. The motor that will be going in will be able to withstand the high boost levels & nitrous oxide. Progress of manifold - 3 out of 4 runners are complete now.

An update on the GSX, I have completed tacking all the runners. We will be welding the manifold completely this weekend then moving onto the wastegate. Once the manifold is complete I will be ceramic coating the manifold and turbine housing. After that we will be going to the 4 inch side exit exhaust. I will be posting photos in the next few days...

Nice! Man, no gloves or jacket when tacking the welds with a tig. Well, it's one way to get a UV burn, w/o the sun, I know I've done it a couple of times.

Well everyone, it has been a while, however the blue demon should run by april, funding/time has been a major issue in this particular project. However we are getting back into the game here. Photos & more to come soon....

Scary beautiful.
What's the displacment and bore size on your engine?
What kind of head mods.
And really, when (est) will that snail deliver full boost?
