Don't have any other pictures just yet. I'll post more when I start working on the hot and cold side.

I justed wanted to share my build on my 92 notchback .

Justin at Samberg Performance in Pleasanton just finished the headers tonight.

The engine is an LS9 built to handle 1,500hp. The twins are Precision 64/66. My power goals are 700rwhp on low boost using Holleys ECU self tuning system.

Sick!! You'll make 700+rwhp easily! LS powered fox FTW! [worship] [burnout]

I ordered the headers from Chris at stainless steel works after he said it would fit my particular setup. They did not fit and it ended up costing me $250.00 to ship them back and a 20% restocking fee. I will never deal with them again!

I have yet to see the invoice but was quoted 2,200-2,500.

Looks like I was taken for. And it was my friends buddy. =|

Damn that sucks good thing stainless works isn't what I went with on my project I just see on yb a lot of lsx fox guys use them I actually got early impala lsx swap headers turned them bitches around had a v band welded on the ends works fine less than $800. Obx I think also makes some for lsx that work in a fox.

Just curious about why you built an ls9 rather than just starting from scratch and building something that could hold "1500" hp, Why take a $10k+ motor and rip it apart and use practically nothing from it?

Just ordered "Treadstone TRTTC9 Twin Turbo Intercooler, Chevy, Corvette, GM, Viper 1300HP"

I did not start from scratch because I got a great deal on the whole engine from my friend.

It probably doesnt take very much for a ls9 to handle 1500 regularly. Like a lq9 for instance what I have you can probably push 1100 stock motor but it's just a ticking time bomb. I see your point tho I mean I can build a lq9 for half the price a ls9 cost and be way more solid. But if you got the dinero to say ls9 more power to you!

If the turbo is mounted to the chassis and the motor isn't solid mounted you might get some cracks eventually on the manifolds. If the turbos are supported via the engine then don't worry about it.

The engine has 4.6L Mustang non urethane mounts and the turbos are connected to turbo headers.
