Oh yea started working on the exhaust cross over piping but ran out of gas and wire in the welder so I guess it will have to wait until I get more..

Trans cross memebr finished.... Here is a picture. What I did was cut off the old mounting tab added a piece of box tubing then weled the mounting tab to the end of the box tubing

Bought a Used core support today it is in much better shape than my old ****ter one I had.....

Also traded my stock tranny for a Percesion FMIC

Oh yea I bought a second drivers side manifold and got it on it looks like this will be the ticket at least for me it will be. I have 2 drivers side manifold both are facing foward drvrs side ams down pass aims up. Plan is to bring a pipe from the drvrs side over to the pass side then a short pipe off the pass manifold mate the 2 togetherthen mount the turbo on top of that. its going to close to the hood but it looks like it will clear.... I ordered some exhaust piping to make the cross over pipe should have it done by next weekend.

I would have never thought this would be this hard to find but it is....

I am looking for the exhaust flange that would attach to the stock 1500 exhaust manifold. I have the donut to seal it with just need the flange and about 6-12"s of pipe.
