I just paid off the gto so i got some extra cash to throw towards this now and hopefully get it up and running without any major problems this time.Small update i tore everything apart and im getting ready to pull out the motor.

Yeah I know how that is. My GA is just sitting out there too till I get a shell for it.

Still this is an exciting thing! hmm 2 turbos... and so it begins

sleepyalero 07-24-2015 11:03 AM

The 35r may be a little small for you sleepy...

Caboose73 09-09-2015 01:29 AM

Sorry for no updates i ended up using the money ive saved up for this build to pay off the GTO :yahoo: :yahoo: But now that its all payed up and taken care of it frees up a lot of extra income so this build should start moving along again

Papa Rad17 09-09-2015 02:02 AM

^smart. But get to work now. :thumb:

Caboose73 11-11-2015 07:17 PM

sleepyalero 11-11-2015 08:03 PM

Ouch! What happened? Glad you are okay.

tw0123 11-11-2015 10:15 PM

Damn that truck took a beating! Hope all parties involved are ok! I have crazy respect for anyone who drives one of these trucks with all the idiots on the roads these days....

Caboose73 11-13-2015 04:03 PM

Ya it happened around 1230-1am outside of Columbus OH we had a light load of 12k lbs and we got stuck in that crappy weather of the hurricane coming up the middle of the country. It jacked knifed when i was going into a corner and over a bridge luckily i was only going 55 so the rear end hit the jersey barrier on the left side then crossed back over the highway and hit and came to a stop on the jersey barrier in the break down lane. Nobody was hurt and we were the only one involved in the wreck i just gave my dad one hell of a wake up cause he was asleep in the back bunk when it happened lol.

Caboose73 05-23-2016 01:21 AM

Alright after a long delay thanks to totaling the truck,buying a new one and im closing on a new house with a sweet 3 car garage in 30 days the project is back on track now. I just bought a engine hoist and stand and it should be here next week some im hoping to get the engine out soon and on the stand for a tear down.

Bahlzeron 05-23-2016 08:12 AM

Nice.. At some point I'd like to do either a super or a turbo.. not sure which. Kinda really dig the idea of a supercharger.. but this late in the game for these 2.4's I'm not sure which would be the cheaper route. But that all has to wait, as I have a Bravada to get on the road yet, and the Alero needs body work or, a new shell if I can find one for cheaper than the needed body work.
