    headers

    what kind of headers are those? What did you have to do for the hydroboost set up? I am basically doing the same thing you are just a 4x4. I have a 6.0lq4 truck motor. Any help would be awesome.

    not sure on the power ....
    you guys tell me
    twin t04e's 57 trims
    stock arp studded lq9
    hand smoothed 317 heads(nothing special just casting)
    236 236 .601 .601 114lsa compcam ( a local shops boost cam)Race Proven Motorsports
    60lb motorons

    i made everything myself ...... learning the hard way let me just say that .....

    its decent .... but its not perfect, i would do it again tho just not try to do everything all at once but with that said it makes it easier to accomplish a nicer job this way .....

    Hydroboost i got from autozone .... just mix and match your year with the same year truck but c-30 or 3500 1 ton which ever is relevant(dont forget a master cyl while your at it and use synthetic DOT 4.)
    then the 2001+ hydroboost ps pump then look at the lines from both years and see which will fit your space better just make sure everything bolts in.

    i had to make a plate to bolt onto the old Vacuum brake bolts after removing them and drill like a 2in hole for the hydroboost .....

    so the hydroboost bolted to the plate then the plate bolted to the 6 existing bolts on the firewall ...... looks oem almost ---- after i painted it all again it was camoed.....




    ill throw new pictures on my photobucket for anyone who needs a reference ..... also more indepth pics of the hydroboost setup and how to run the lines to the ps box/pump/unit

    truck is almost done anyhow need fresh shots
