definately NOT overkill. . . .ya got the money to do what you're doin (assumin so. . . .it's gettin' done). expensive, yes, overkill, no. and lsx's been runnin in the 10's since they came out, fact bottom end, that guy's ls2 isnt one of a kind, he just cant do much else but what he's doin. looks like you found yourself a good shop there.

What are you doin with that callaway screwer? motor?

Sold em both! Yep, In my opinion...Overkill in realtion to motor builds is not really possible. Just how much "insurance" you want to buy.

Based upon air flow and volume. They have some kind of formulas they plug in to calculate overall surface area and volume.

Apparently capital is not the only resource you have an abundance of. It seems you have a ton of patients as well.

Keep up the great work, and thanks for sharing!

Hey buddy...Hi ya doing! That was my badges that Third Shift made for me. Never got a chance to put em on as I changed to my new project. He did a great job with creating them by using a Ray in the badge.

would u happen to know the formula by chance?

I like it. Being "overbuilt" is the way to make it last. It is all about the strain. I think you could say it is over done, because a blown LS1 is more than enough for me. Beating a Mustang by 9 lengths wasn't enough?

Did you consider Garrett GT series turbos?

I asked the builder...he said it was on the internet and he would try to find the web site for ya. It has to do with total surface area of pipe and intake and volume of air which extrapolates actual flow rates. Greek to me!

Considered lots of turbo options. Builders have had good longevity experience with Turbonetics. Garrett is also a very good choice.

HERE IS THE FINISHED INTERCOOLER (AIR TO AIR). THE PURPLE CLAMPS ARE WIGGINS CLAMPS USED ON F15 FIGHTER JETS. THEY POLISHED THEM TO REMOVE THE PURPLE COLOR. EXPENSIVE BUT NEVER EVER ANY LEAKS
