Looking awesome man, I wish 07k swaps were being developed before I started accumulating parts for my 20vt swap, these photos make green with envy

Ahh I see.

My initial goal is to hit 400-450 whp around 18-20 lbs. given my old dyno graph with the AAN and several factors at the time of dyno that should be easy. Heres a few problems it had, and a short history of the AAN becoming "history" for this car.
312 whp at 18 lbs(super hx40)


Sounds like a good goal, I am assuming E85 with those numbers?

Hope you get it fired up soon, good job :)

You guys have a source for those aluminum 90s you used to make the throttle body transition for the intake manifold that isn't Wagner metal at $70 a pop?

Anything here close? They also have some transition cones in 6061

I've ordered some stuff from them before and it's good quality.

The stuff I see on mandrel bends is only 16 gauge. That's too thin no? 16 gauge is like intercooler piping wall thickness I thought.

Can you post some pictures of your oil pump? I need to make sure this pickup is going to work with it.

any reason you guys opted to use the blue circled bosses for engine mounts versus the red ones? i know the reds would be a bit tighter....especially with the way you made your manifold versus the way hank has his...but is that the only real reason? just curious.

Unfortunately that doesn't much answer my question. OP do you have any pictures of the passenger motor mount in relation to the exhaust manifold?
