CI BOOST FIEND
Got A LOT done today, went up to Metric and Multistandard and got some new pressure plate bolts, bell housing bolts, and turbo bolts.
Mounted the clutch, flywheel, pressure plate, and tranny
got a broken bolt out of my turbo,mounted it, and connected the oil lines
got the starter bolted up.

The engine is now ready to drop in, i need a adapter for one brake line to the master cylinder and then that will be done.

looks like all i need now is the rest of my IC piping and a big ass FMIC;)

Nice build. Almost makes me want to boost my LS....almost. Got a question about your ported IM. I see you ported the TB to 70mm and your ports. Did you do anything else (or plan on it?).You gonna cut it open and port the runners? How much did you pay for the various drill bits etc. I'm debating to just port my LS whenever I start my own build. I hear that alot of those aftermarket IMs only really help your high end power. Afterall I don't plan on driving my car at 8000rpms.

yeah i just bored it and ported the runners, nothing else. and i had all of the stuff already. I used a Die grinder for the tb port and i used a dremel for the runners.
