mine is just a c6. im working on getting the video size smaller so i can post a video of the car. the video is half throttle donuts.. not the greatest video but i was bored and had a few minutes. non turbo still as of now. but im about to pull the motor back out and rebuild it. i think my cam bearings are going. kinda expected somethig like that on a 40 yr old motor. but shouldnt take to long to have it rebuilt. since its cold out side and nasty weather here. why not.1993 B6T swapped Festiva- Reich raceing ECU, Cork Sport down pipe, MBC for now, Capri Tranny. sold

If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

it will be street legal when its finished. and the 1200 hp is with 12 psi of twin t4 boost. right now it is just a stock 460. the twin turbo setup will take alot of time and money which i am saving for. i already have the turbos. all in all it will cost some where around 16k start to finish. but if i have 2 motors ill ake one a 545 stoker and the other a boosted 460. and thanks for the compliment.1993 B6T swapped Festiva- Reich raceing ECU, Cork Sport down pipe, MBC for now, Capri Tranny. sold

my first big block set was home built. using opposite side shorty headers (this is far from ideal) at the time my welding and fabricating skills were not what they are now. i hacked them off and bought a ton of mandrel bends from the speedshop (most bends were messups) i mixed and matched and bent to make the collecters turn forward twords the radiator and up to a merge pipe to were the batt once was.
my second set were kooks custom built. these were by far the nicest headers i have ever personaly owned and would recomend them to anyone as long as your pockets are deep enough.
i ran into every problem you could think of. i didnt own a computer at the time nor did i want one. so experienced help was few and far between. everyone swore they knew exatly what had to be done but not many had a clue lol.
my biggest problems overall were intake temp, and a\f ratio underboost mixed with timing curve88 mustang 427 stroker garrett t-76 turbo best run 8.86@ 151.56
