Got Bo's PTB and the rod mod in today!

The box I got the IM in looked like it had gone through a war. After closer inspection, it seemed like they used a box that bo had sent them before lol.

Anyways, rain stopped me from putting on the rod modded IM, but going from the 5.7L's throttle body to BW's PTB was a huge difference. There was bogging on the old TB and this is like kaboom, instant response.

I plan on tying everything up with some BMR motor mounts and the revshift tranny mount insert. (Future suspension pending ... $$)

Overall, my butt dyno is extremely impressed by the response of bo's PTB.
I'll be getting a tune here soon and will be able to post up a before and after with cam+headers alone, to the intake side being addressed (same dyno)... minus heads :(

Here's pics

If it's a port job, it's still 90, right?
