I couldn't find a link to your build thread on the site. Being this is NJ's premier Jeep forum, I thought it would have popped right up. Maybe you can fix that?

I lost another engine at e-town back in Oct. The single bolt that holds the camshaft sprocket to the camshaft came loose and the valves mated with the pistons. After installing a new/used engine, I decided to do a true twin scroll turbo set up. Also did a parallel fuel system, since I have two sets of fuel rails.The last fuel injector in the system was about 6ft away from the first. Next upgrade will be a 12 bolt.

I'm trying to find a Camaro to play around with but everything seems to be overpriced or complete junk so no luck yet. I might just get another jet boat to play around with in the nice weather. Oh, and I'm trying to make sure I don't work too hard!  I do have some work I wanted to do on the truck, but that will have to wait until it gets warmer out'

I'm chasing pieces to do a low buck big turbo set up for the Spirit R/T. Guys use Holset turbos off of Cummings diesels and get 500 hp to the wheels.

Could I talk you into a junkyard 5.3L turbo build? There should be a build thread or two floating around here actually...

I've been doing the same. Trying to find a decent 3rd gen to get into but people want wayyyy to much for them.
I could buy a 5th gen for less than what some people want for a third gen

Nice third gens are 6000-10000 cars. But I see them out there in good shape 3000-50000. Depends on exactly what you want

If you look, you can find something good.
5th gens are ok price wise - at least the first few years. But I prefer my f-bodies under 4,000lbs - thank you...

I'm currently trying to work on my replacement for my camaro(lease turn-in feb 3rd).
It's a 1998 STS which I've been back and forth about actually trying to fix/finish. As of right now, its back on and I am actually making progress, even though I only get to work on it a few hours every week or so.
Tear down is complete, cleanup is 90% complete. Then its time for some drilling tapping and studding, then reassembly.
