530ci fuel injected Cad with twins. If a motorhome burning the tires isn't inspiring, I don't know what is. :twisted:

caddycamaro,

Realize just how much work you are looking at. If you aren't at least somewhat skilled at fabricating, welding, etc, you'll have a bunch of money just in that.

The link that shakedog posted is my album. Lots of hours. I need to update it though. I changed my mind and went with internally 'gated turbos to simplify things a bit. The manifolds, turbine housing etc are ceramic coated now. Still have many hours to go though. Still need to build down pipes and the turbo to carb hat piping. Might go with a front mount IC, but I might just use alky/02 injection and call it good.

Summer is too busy for me to allow any time for it. One more winter, I hope.

Yeah there are a few of us. Lots of work like Dave says. Are you going to do it yourself? Heres a few pics of the clustered up mess under the hood
