Man, that's cool! :2cool:

I like it up in the air where you can see it. Are you going to be able to close the hood? :oops:

when i was test fitting for my twins i could close the hood with a s300 in the same position

by **cummins king** » Thu Jan 17, 2008 6:51 pm

that would be funny if it didnt close :lol:

ya there 1/2 inch of room between the hood and the top turbo, its tight anybody know were you can get that hood thing that go from the front of the hood to the back

and one other thing the lip on the bottom turbo is like 3 inchec would it be a big deal if i cut it of and slid a 3 inch boot over it instead of finding a v band clamp and the right fitting for it

Instead of splitting your oil line from the existing location you could take the other plug out that is on top of the filter housing and run two seperate lines.

whats the difrence, its probaly not going to stay that way anyways because i have to make a remote filter system for the air filter, anybody know of a good 5 inch air filter

The bottom turbo is the low pressure turbo, IIRC, so you should be okay with a boot there. If you look at the photo of the engine at the bottom of the page http://www.piersdiesel.com/DodgeTwins.htm it looks like that one is using a boot. I wish I was getting twins for my birthday!

Your hot pipe looks like 4". If it is you could benifit quite a bit from smaller piping. My Hx60 is not mounted parallel to the block, I cocked it over that way the air inlet would clear the oil filter, it looks like yours could to if you did it that way. Doing that also made it easier for me to get the 5" downpipe out between the frame and bellhousing.

you have a 3 or 3.5 inch hot pipe
