Oh, very nice and clean!

When you turbo it are you rebuilding the existing motor or just slapping a turbo on the stock?
 
it took 3 years to get this far but i.m building a high carbon esslinger that is set up for turbo.the next big hump is lightweight forged crank and the 6 speed the rest will pretty much come 1 check at time.rebiulding susp,bigger brakes first.motor last this time.
