if they are longtubes, theres a step ahead. MAC makes the only longtubes for the 3.8L Mustang engine and even then you have some clearance issues.

i'd be interested in that turbo setup

What would be the conditions this? They should do multiple proto's if they are smart, but need to make sure the kinks are really worked out before putting it to the test.

Just realize you will be out of a ride for a good while, and if something happens to the truck, they better be willing to pay for it.

its gonna start with cold air intake and long tube headers, after we see the powergains there than we will slap turbo on there and see how she handles it. i will be doing most of the work along with the guy i am not worried bout anything going wrong. we put just short of 60 hp to a lil single cylinder atv engine so i am pretty sure headers will be walk in the park. just trying to get the feel to see how many people would be intreasted in them to see if i should make a jig for them or not.



yes they will be tested before sold or givven to other people to try out so that way no 1s truck is hurt or harmed in the procces (if it was chevy it be no big deal)


i will keep everyone updated on work and or progress just keep the feedback coming
