looter Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 Hey guys, figured I'd throw a few pictures up. I've been burning out a little on the build and I'm getting much closer to done each day. Just looking for the final push to wrap up the detail end of things. it turns into not nearly enough hours in the day after working and rasing a family. I'm sure this isn't news to many members.

GatorDog72 Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 Looks great! What motor is that? Thats one huge turbo on there for sure Quote
dbreese Posted April 26, 2015 Posted April 26, 2015 i like it. The Monte looks wicked with a lot of attention to detail! Great work!! David Quote
Jared Richey Posted April 26, 2015 Posted April 26, 2015 WOW!!! What mm turbo is that???!!!! Let me guess, shooting for 1000+ RWHP? Quote
waupachino Posted April 27, 2015 Posted April 27, 2015 That looks sick. So want one. You're going to need one tall hood scoop to clear that air inlet. Quote
502ci Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 Awesome looking... Let me guess, shooting for 1000+ RWHP? Isn't that everyone's goal... Quote
looter Posted April 28, 2015 Author Posted April 28, 2015 thanks guys. the turbo is a 76mm I've built everything to support 1000+ in the engine, trans and fuel system. Now I'll just chase the rest of the weak links. Quote
GatorDog72 Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 1000+ hp that's insane! I don't think you will have any trouble finding the weak links lol. I'm assuming by the wheel/tire combo that this is a street car too. I love turbo cars, boost ftw! Quote
Andy's Auto Posted May 6, 2015 Posted May 6, 2015 How big is the LS in it? LS engines are huge around here. My bud just went 6.89@191 in his twin turbo 99 Formula. Not the most reliable thing, but at 1865 RWHP, who cares? Turn it down tad and have fun. Quote
looter Posted May 7, 2015 Author Posted May 7, 2015 it's a 6L currently, but I have a back up that I'm building that will be in the 408-421 cu in. range. I suspect with the high altitude where I live that 900 will be a livable combination. it is totally a street car....I started this deal 3 years ago just wanting a big block first Gen and here is where I have wound up. lol the LS platform is far and away the strongest starting point in my opinion.

monte0 Posted June 8, 2015 Posted June 8, 2015 Nice build! I'm going the LS route myself and planned on going turbo a few years later too. Quote
