Yes, the plenums will work on a stock turbo.
More pics to come as we get into assembly. Right now we are having a few minor issues with Industrial on the turbo kit, so as soon as we get that handled we will get it put together.
Should be a screamer.
I'll keep you updated as it progresses.

Been a little while, but work has progressed. Got the motor mounted in the frame, turbo plumbed in, and got the Tial external wastegate plumbed in. That was NO SMALL FEAT!
Next is just finishing up the fuel system. We recieved the FASS for it yeaterday. Next on the list is to finish designing the "New" return system we will be offering with the fass pumps for the 7.3's.
With any luck, it should run this weekend.

Working on that one. I realizes that last night and was too tired to screw with it. I have to go and tow a customer's truck right now and I will look at it when I get back. Also should have some updated pics too. We are very close to being ready to fire it off. . . .

I think what happened was I reorganized my photobucket MESS and the links were lost.
Chad!! Little help here? I don't see a button for me editing my original posts to fix the pictures. Dammit. OK, well, some of the original pics then -

Thank you.
Little update. We worked like mad last week trying to get this thing ready for Sunday. Friday night we got it running correctly, but it didn't see asphalt until saturday. So, with 23 miles on it we loaded it onto the trailer and Sunday morning headed to the track. 13.54 was the time we got out of it, fuel only, no nitrous or meth. Not too bad. We do have some tuning issues to deal with, but that should be fairly straight forward. Not too bad for a first outing.
