My first build Turbo 408

With as hard as it is to get parts this is not going to be a short build by any means.
2010 camaro 1ss 42000 miles

The 408 build begins e85/methanol
6.0 gen 4
Lunati crank/rods combo 4.00/6.125
Wiseco k464x3 pistons compression 11.1
Melling oil pump
821 heads
Morel 5209 lifters
Btr 660 dual springs
Rollmaster timing set
Ati balancer
Tkm custom turbo cam
Arp main studs/head bolts
Machine work done by TKM
Holley High Ram
Motion raceworks 102mm icon throttle body
Th400 trans
Holley dominator ecu

For now the bottom end is together but im still waiting on a oil pan and head gaskets. Putting together a fuel system has been kind of difficult this is my first build and I don't want to do stuff twice. I will add pictures and update whenever possible. I have been working six 14-hour days a week so the progress has been kind of slow also waiting on parts has been an issue.

You can post pictures and zip files onto the forum page you are working on, use advanced and select manage attachments. Some like my friend FasNuf likes to post videos on you tube and add links (web address) onto his posts, lots of good info in them. Here is a quick tutorial of adding pics. Also you may want to open your pics in paint before uploading them, to make sure the orientation is correct, I always click on it in the corner to make a dot then save,

Welcome to the endless Camaro build pages, it seems like you are never done!!

Glad you joined us!!

I got to say starting a build with a roller some heads and a block has been a challenge to say the least but im finally getting some where after months of tracking down parts, back orders and a list of bolts to put a space shuttle together l.
