yes. Please re-size those pics.

if you cant send them to me Mike@homemadeturbo.com and I will email them back at 50% smaller.

BTW. does the turbo smoke, that drain tube looks like it will back-up a little.

we changed turbo's and clocked it more, that turbo had a bent shaft, so we ended up using a different one and fixed the oil return, Chevy helped out with that oil return you see there :-P hah

Overall it looks good. The oil return line from the turbo need to be adjusted. It might cause the oil to backup and this could make your turbo smoke. I think you should drill a hole about half inch in diameter in the cross member, and route the return line through it. My $0.02.

yea it doesnt smoke at all, but we shortened up the oil return and its a little better, i might try drilling the hole though.
i took it to the track last night and ran a 14.5 with 5 lbs. of boost :(

14.5 with 5 lbs is pretty good, when my connectors start to melt, and it drops from 10 to 4-5 psi, its pretty weak, 5 psi isnt much. up it to about 10 and youll ---- yourself, lol....
