Re: LT1 Boost Customer build... again

Just got parts in today, so it should be done this weekend.

Here is the new flex coupler (the other one in the previous pics was too thin for a turbo application.

For those interested, the new flex coupler is shown below. It has the mesh on the inside, which you can and SHOULD remove in turbo applications. The inner mesh is held in by a pres fit metal ring. pull the ring out and the mesh comes out.

I'm sure that would do lovely things to an exhaust wheel.

Beautiful work.
Wouldn't a remote oil filter be a good idea too?

Re: LT1 Boost Customer build... again

thanks man. remote oil filter is only needed if clearance was an issue, but it is not. Pics may be deceiving, but plenty of room to get oil filter off and on.

Filter access looks better than most header setups to be honest.
