no its not binding down it will only clamp on the top of the v band the turbo and flange combo are too wide for the clamp man this sucks...oh its also hit the manifold where my wastegate goes...did it do that to you

besides that it looks great wrapped and on the car but it wont clamp down it will hold but not all the way like it should...as of now i will defenatly have horrible exhaust leak

Looks very nice still

did you stud or dowel the motor at all? i just hope you dont break your iron trying to push that much HP through an s5 block and have reliabilty probs. with the hard work you have into this project

that is why i am going with a 13brew now..... the castings are huuuuge compared to even a renforced s5 iron

I found out mine cracked so this is the reason for the fd motor now...... i was ponering pinning or studding my current block but opted for the rew

this was only on 370 wheel on a 57 trim with hard drag launches and a short time at 400 rwhp on a pt67....just started seeping oil one day

Dude don't worry about "breaking" the engine. Your engine will hold up fine and will make good power! Soooo...who is going to tune it ?
