Why were the holes cut into the driver and passenger trays? They look new. Is piping going to run through there?

I would love to, but the price for this engine will very expensive. A complete roll over 5.7L Tundra is around $15,000 USD. That was few months back, but I am sure they are cheaper now. I started this 4.7L before the 5.7L were sold.

Thanks Scott,

Slowly but surely..... Taking the engine out this week for down pipes.

Anyway, I have some updates. Got my 4" elbow long legs (10"). They are very hard to find and expensive too. Got them and cut them down to fit the turbo inlet. Getting fresh air from outside. The goal is to get cold air and keep them cold. Notice the pipe routings are kept away from heat source. Here are some pictures
