Update: I am now driving the beast! I’m shaking it down for any bugs, so far its been good fixing a few leaks and tightening bolts etc. The A/C is now charged up and working. It’s rowdy for sure, not as much a daily driver as some, but a daily badass driver haha, 3000 stall converter and the twins liking to be idling or on full boost. I’m happy w the twins so far, I’m excited to tune it soon, they set it up with a safe tune around 600 to the wheels so I could put some miles on it. When it goes back were going to set it up around 700+ to keep it reliable and together, its plenty to get in trouble.

As large as the engine bay in a square is, it fits tight in spots for sure, the A/C was work to get hooked up but the guys at UPP in Colorado Springs did some amazing fab work I think.
