Wow that's not bad at all. Jamie does great work. And it's always perfect.
I'd guesstimate you'll add ~100 lbs with turbos, exhaust, intercooler, etc.
Definitely a lightweight compared to my porkers!

Picked up a Motion Raceworks throttle body and billet Y adapter as well as some RIFE engine and trans sensor blocks, I’ll show the trans one later when I get under the truck.
2nd pic is where the engine sensor block might go, just holding it up with a couple 3M adhesive pads. I’ll need to mount the trans dipstick a bit lower or move trans catch can and dipstick over some.

Any real advantage to going 16v at that power level?

Hmm interesting. I run antigravity 12v batteries when I want to drop weight. My lightest one is like 3lbs. Will crank my trucks up no problem. I know 16v is supposedly pretty good for ignition stuff with CDI coils. Not sure if the regular smart coils benefit from it besides lowered dwell.

You actually bring up a good point, but I figure if I am going to spend the money on lithium I am going to 16v. I'll check on Antigravity.
Edit: They have really good prices, 12v is certainly MUCH cheaper than 16v.

Yes they do. Been good for me so far. Definitely a good option for race only type batteries.

Now if what I wanted was in stock LOL
I really like this one, looks like they are out of a lot of chargers as well. https://antigravitybatteries.com/products/starter-batteries/extreme-power/ytx20/
I was eye-balling the XS Lithium. They show a few options for group 65 showing 8-11lbs. The 3rd one is a 14v

I basically have that one and the ATX-30. It's over 900 cranking amps and very light as well.

Lithium seems to crank faster than AGM to me in general for some reason.

Holiday guests are gone and everything is settling back to normal so I was able to knock out a few things tonight. Installed IAT and CLT sensors, new engine-trans bolts (gotta have bougie 12 point), mocked up the oil dist block, and MAP sensor fitting.
I decided I did not want a mess of brass fittings or a bunch of hard to reach connections going in to the oil pressure sensor adaptor. I ended up using a 3/8" NPT fuel block with a -6 inlet, 2 -4 outlets(turbos), and a -3 outlet (oil pressure sensor). I think I'll mount it to the front of the motor plate so it's easy to get to and easy to check for leaks. Just holding it up with double sided tape for now.
