I've done alot of work on the car so far. I got it as a roller "ready to go". However, it wasn't. I've done most of the metal work for the smooth firewall and cowl, replaced the trans tunnel, scraped all the undercoating from the floor in and out, coated with chassis saver, cut out the messed up outer wheelhouses, fabbed up the motor plate, mounted the new master cylinder, routed and fabbed front brake lines, made mounting plates for the rear brake line, and did some work on the turbo headers. Here are some pics:

And finally, I cut the 3" vbands off and got a transition to 2.5". I welded that on and the 2.5" vbands for them. I'm waiting on my tubing to arrive, which isn't going to be until tuesday. I also got the front brake lines made and routed along with mounting plates for the rear brake line.

the project you are doing is nearly identical to what im working on right now. i have been working on my wheel tubs the last 2 weeks, and i have a mockup block sitting in the engine bay ready for me to do the motor plates. twin turbos as well.

I finally got my 2.5" stainless, t4 flanges and merge pieces. I got one side fitted and welded up. I welded a tab to the t4 flange and made a support out of 3/4" dowel rod.

I got the drivers side downpipe fabbed up. I'll get the passengers side done tonight. The wideband bung isn't in the most ideal place, but I cut up my old downpipe and that's where it was there. The wideband fits, but I'll have to make something to make sure the wires don't get burnt up.

Don't know about V8's but I've always run them post-turbo. Supposedly the most accurate reading is within about 12 inches or so of the turbo but not too close or it will prematurely wear out the sensor.

That's the exact spot that it was on my old setup and the wideband never took a dump. I was going to move it, but I'm running out of 3" stainless lol

Because the pressure in the manifold skews the readings and the heat that gets generated there will wear out the sensor quicker.

Aluminum is much less forgiving when welding. I got the turbos to firewall fabbed up. I also got my driver side seat mounted. I should have started at the v bands and went to the turbos, but did the opposite.

I got some stuff done. I got the brake lines all tightened, made brackets for the rear end and all of the brake lines are mounted and tight. I do have to figure out the push rod for the wilwood master cylinder.
I also got some of the cold side done. I got from the firewall to behind the front seat. I have two 90's to weld on there and the vband and that will be done. Then I can mount the intercooler and then run the piece to the engine.

I realize this is a old thread. Just had to ask. Are you sure that's a 69? It has a 68 grill. Got a picture of the taillights and the dash? 68 does have vent windows, but that one has plexiglass, so it could go either way.

I think you'd be better off with an electric pump or remove the plate from covering the water jacket holes, that lil water pump bolt holes in shear like that doesn't seem like it will last to what power you are trying to make.

That's where this plate holds the motor. I'd rather not get an electric pump since I already have the mechanical pump

I'm sure I can ask around and find someone to kill the water pump. If it were me and I was having it milled then I'd have a new one done possibly 2. Just for a backup.

I got the brakes bled, which I thought was going to be a nightmare but there are no leaks! I have all AN stainless lines. I used the Eastwood vice flaring tool. I also welded in a new bung for the Holley wideband. Which was indeed a nightmare. During my welding I had a plug in there to not distort the bung. Well, there were several distractions and I didn't move the plug after each weld and it ended up screwing up several of the bottom threads. Luckily the wideband doesn't use them and it was a big bitch to get it out. I ran a thread chaser down it and all is well now. I cleaned up some of the wiring and put caps on wires that I won't be using immediately. I cut out a portion of the motor plate for my alternator and need to mount that still as well as fab up a tensioner and idler pulley setup.
If anyone has the door rear guide upper mounting plates and doesn't need them, I would gladly buy them. I cannot find them any where!
Still alot left to do, but I'm getting closer. I have to figure out the electric fan wiring with the Holley, make a shifter mount, hook up the shifter, install driveshaft, install alternator, make the tensioner/idler setup, get the correct size belt, do something with the coolant vents, some sort of PCV setup, throttle cable, get a pedal, get seats, make mounts, parachute release, figure something out with the door glass, install the door panels, cranks, and armrests, test the wiring to make sure this bitch doesn't burn down, check for fuel leaks, setup the Holley system, and I'm sure there's more.

I got what I think is ok, an alternator mount. I cut the original truck bracket so it wouldn't interfere with the motor plate and then cut the other ears off to allow for adjustability. I also made the smooth pulley a ribbed pulley. The alternator is in the way of how I had my fuel line routed, so I had to order a 90 3/8 npt fitting to clear the alternator. I mounted and wired up my tach/shiftlight combo from my old car. Then I got a pair of relays ready for fan wiring.

The build is coming along nicely. Newbie question here- are there any issues with running boost pipes through the interior? I've seen it done before but was curious about it.
There looked like there was room for an air to air FMIC in front of the radiator. It is hard to tell from the pictures though.

I got a little done on it. I got the wiring for the alternator completed, finally got my 90* fitting for the rail and finished the fuel system, wired the cooling fans, mounted my meth pump, mounted my meth controller, started wiring the bump box as well. I did have to cut the hanger for my glove box and made a custom stop out of a piece of wire haha!
I found out I need to adjust the ladder bars, they will not allow the driveshaft to bolt up to the rear. I also found out that my shifter cable is too short and I'm unable to loop it to allow for smooth operation. I'm waiting on some tubing to get here so I can fab up my shifter mount. Not too much longer!

I got it running this past Friday as planned. I had a couple mishaps along the way that day though. The feed line at the discharge of the pump was leaking badly, but didn't show its ugly face until the pump was started. Trans line on the bottom cooler line is leaking. Well it's the 1/2npt to 6an fitting. The fuel pressure gauge that sends to the Holley doesn't match my new mechanical gauge. I've tried all different offsets, and no luck. Oil pressure was pegged. So I went and got a new sensor from autozone and it's good now. Idles at 46psi. I've ordered a new fitting and sensor, so I should have them shortly.
All the lights, boost controller, efi, compressor, intercooler pump, and meth kit all work correctly though!

I got the following installed:

-Passengers/drivers quarter glass
-Throttle cable
-Pedal
-Fenders

I do not have power numbers or ET's, the car should make north of 800rwhp with 20+lbs of boost. I have a ton of pictures from all of the work that I've done to the car. I have spent alot of time and money on this car, but I have two play cars and one of them has to go.
