Very nice job. Are you rebuilding them yourself? That first gen is going to be a screamer! What turbo is that?

Sweet is right!!!!!! Who did your polishing? I guess the guy who did mine was lazy because he told me the throttle body was too touchy to mess with.... I need my throttle body polished too dammit!!!!

Thanx Guys

Hi....I did'nt rebuild the actual engine, just put everything together. I did polish the throttle body, just the throttle body though. Everything else I bought already polished from a place in california but I can't remember the name of the shop.

Arrow Replies!!!

1st Igoslow: after polishing I cleaned it real good with wenol ( I think I spelled that right ), no clear coat or anything else. 2nd Venom858: I pay crazy $$ for insurance...its so much I'm scared to say, and do all kinds of crap for extra money for the beast. 3rd Jrios: Hey thanx Jose...can't wait till you get your 12a Turbo up and running...then I can race you with the 12a Bridge ported nitrous burning MONSTER I'm building..LOL...it'll be fun...I think a good race. 4th Rxrotary2_7: Yes its a Holley 650 DP and a racing beat intake manifold. Glad you guys like the pics....hope fully I'll get the damn thing running soon.
