The 5.4 is almost done, the short block is put back together and he is waiting on the exhaust valves to come in they are on back order. As soon as I get it back then its time to order radiator electric fan kit and underdrive pullies!

turbo? mine is a costly belt driven procharger
Costly? When a diesel guy buys a bigger turbo, you have to buy bigger injectors to supply it. So, I bet you add both mine up, and yours will look CHEAP!!
