Default Bahdeets 07 Monte New Comp Turbo Installed

Went to Salt lake yesterday to have my Monte's 4 wheel alignment done (good thing to, it was way out) and while there took a few photo's of Sam's 07 Monte being built.
The new larger Comp Turbo CT5 8488 is now installed. This monster is pretty darn big, a HUGE 5" air intake, 84MM inducer, 88MM exducer. Rated to 1430 hp.

Also a couple shots with the Chevy Impala front end now installed on his Monte. Has the larger air intake grille, this car needs all the fresh air to the radiator area it can muster.
And then a picture of the trunk mounted water reservoir for his fuel cooler.
The car is going to the Dyno tomorrow, if this goes well the car will be on the wind down phase of this 2 year build. And ready to return to Michigan and it's very patient owner. The car will be going to participate in this years Dream Cruise. Guess it's a very big event from what I have read about it. If you live in the area this would be your opportunity to see this very special Monte Carlo SS

Well remember it's not an LS4 - he's got a destroked LS7 in there! Custom made obviously so it could still be transversely mounted.

just hope that he made mods to the trans as well all that work to the engine and have some thing simple to fail. i would love to see it run and run well and be a good one to drive. it looks so far that there is a lot of love so far put into it
