Wow, some nice stuff on here!
Here is my first turbo car--'88 Daytona Shelby Z. I got it with melted pistons and a few other problems. I got it running in about a week and it has been my daily driver for most of the two years since the Valiant got hit. I constantly tinker with it to make it better, even though it has been pretty dang reliable for me--a rolling project I guess you could call it. I've always been a RWD guy, but this is a fun little car.

There were only a few of us turbo V8 guys 10 years ago. I remember all the grief I got for trying to build mine back then. Almost everybody on Moparts wanted to kick me in the junk and make fun of the project.
It's nice to see the number and quality of turbo motors on Moparts now.

By the angle of the picture the turbos look like they are mounted extremely low. Have any more pictures?

Yeah they are low. I am going to have to pump the oil back to the pan. I am still thinking about how I am going to deal with it. I have seen setups like this before, so I know it can be done.
