If you're going for pure racecar are you going to ditch the factory dash/gauges?

If so, one of the re-wire kits is really the simplest way. It is printed on the wires what their function is along with a number referenced to a wiring diagram.

Yeah it's full racecar. I'll be most likely using the AEM Dash. You're probably right though i'll have to sit down and see what I actually need

Well, not much of an update, but my steering wheel finally showed up so I took advantage of the warmer weather and got it mounted, The place I was going to have build my Manifold may not be able to get it done for awhile as they've been pretty busy, so I may need to go back to a 6870, or find someone else to make one.

Morrison Fabrications might be worth a try.
That looks awesome.

Thanks Mark, it's a slow going process right now, I wish it were going a little quicker but there's a lot of things I need to get rolling and we're just kind of in limbo right now

Never heard of them, I was thinking MadFab out of Fargo since he's made a few of my friends manifolds he should have a Jig that will work with the bigger turbo

They bought Ron Shearer's business from him, they have some very nice manifolds and other stuff. Might be worth a look.

Oh nice, I saw the link you tagged me in they look pretty good. I just noticed with my front end there a couple posts that come up for the bumper to mount on and that sits right in the way of my current manifold. So I may need it to be a custom built piece
