I do not have IG but Ive been thinking about getting back into some type of social media. Sounds like a cool dude with some good builds though, this should be a burnout queen

Yess! White and a Notch! No better combo in my opinion. On top of that, Coyote swapped AND a big snail! So awesome!

EDIT: Just read the entire thread. Well done on the TL! Love everything done. I bet opening your garage door puts a big smile on your face haha.

Thank you sir! Yeah I’ve put a lot of time into both cars. The TL is so awesome though, it was neglected before I bought it and I like where it is as of now. In the spring I’ll do a photo shoot of both cars. And hopefully a burnout pic of the notch haha

I bet! I would love to have a project like this one day. As you know my truck is getting a new motor dropped in at the moment. Down the road when the truck is rotted out, I can pull the 6.0L, that is going in, and get it bored .030 over and put that into a body and boost it! Maybe by then I will have some funds saved up to pay for it! Little do I know I will probably have 6 kids and be living off the state.

Turbo fab is all complete except for the bov. I am super impressed with my friends work, welds and location of everything is awesome. Now I need to keep up with the progress and start wiring and plumbing. To keep the car a street car I did not want the exhaust to dump out the front, so the exhaust goes through the driver side fender/suspension area. I’m hoping to keep it sleeper as possible but as soon as that hood opens it’s all business.

Honestly it should be fairly quiet with the turbo and the muffler I have. It’s a v8 auto with a small snail that makes just a whittle boost. Put in drive and cruise. That’s the plan

The guy is an animal. Once he got it he had it back to me in like 2 days. And yes, this thing should drive really well I’m hoping. It wasn’t that bad honestly just want to get it all done at same time

I torqued all the suspension down with the arm jacked up. I think the calipers look great. Just need to install the rear calipers n brakes, bleed them, then I’ll get a pic with wheels on

He can’t wait to go for a ride
