Oh where or where have my rods gone. Oh where or where could they be ;)

No worries. They will be even easier than ever to find with a new handy dandy inspection hole in the side of the block.:D

Sorry Larry, had to.:angel:

i'm not sure if its a race cover or just a polished cover, this is the new kit Nathan advertised the first of the year, I ordered it and had it about a week later. It seems to work well with the cheetah, it quietned up the cheetah significantly, but when the big turbo spools it sounds pretty cool. So far my drive pressure gauge pretty much follows the boost gauge, maybe a little spike on initial acceleration but it quickly comes down. The only time i've really gotten into the throttle I popped the intake out of the Y Bridge and about $*%t my pants, had to drive roughly 20 miles with no boost cause I couldn't find the leak. Just partiall throttle chirps the tires on the big tune though and i've had the back end pretty squirlly several times ( part throttle ). I hardly have any smoke with the race tune, and the street tune has zero smoke :confused:.................I really miss the cheetah's old sound, but I think the new sound will keep growing on me

IMO I would make a alluminum tab from the runner to the Y-bridge weld it to the runner and drill and tap the bridge.

I had to do this I could not keep it from popping out

I got Levi's turbo blankets on both turbo's and the hotpipe, and I have header blankets on as well. I kept the Ram air tube off my Banks CAI and have it pushing air to the air filter, I still have some concern over high IAT's, i'm seeing 150* with the outside temps in the mid 70's, I can only imagine what will happen this summer. Need to look at fabbing up some kind of heat shield I guess.

Do you know if Levi makes the blankets to fit RDL headers and up pipes?
