Nice setup how is that f1 Clutch setup working out for you? I Have the stage 3 kit with the flywheel. I'm going Trm stg 2 and hoping that the F1 kit will hold up.
There's an easier way to remove that asphalt mat sound deadening; an air chisel, really??
A little bit of heat from my Milwaukee heat gun, and it lifts right off. Spray some carb cleaner (or use lacquer thiiner) and the residue wipes right off. I do this all the time...
Oh, and cool build; BMW + sbc + turbo = big fun!
Git rid of the radiator. It's in the way
Seems as if there is a lot of room on either side of the frame rails in front for a single on one side or smaller twins (one on each side). It will be interesting how you have the turbo in front of the rad and if the exhaust heat will effect cooling temps. I'd personally put the turbo to the side and away from that rad. That way you could even toss in A/C.
Otherwise...sick setup!
As for the air chisel, sometimes it is just a grab the closest tool and do work kind of day! Heat gun, dry ice.. lot's of different ways to go about it!
That is not where the turbo is going to sit! Plenty more fabrication to come!

Turbo on the steering side? Why?
bit more room and the exhaust is going to go out of the hood!

no its a feeler to take the chassis and all parts
if there is no interest, it will get a 5.0 swap and the other parts will be listed.

This has been in the works for awhile. It's been a slow build and this chassis has had several swaps over the years, but this time we made a 6.8l ford v10 fit. It will be different for sure and the chassis will be ready for any other powerplant.
