here was the lq4 on the stand with a BMR tubular K member because the car was a v6
I went with a th350 because I already had one out of another car
heres the lq4 with ls6 intake and electronic throttle body and lq4 harness

Then I started searching for a turbo kit because well why not. Well after a couple months of searching I decided on a rear mount because I was building it for the wife and wanted to keep a/c and also always wanted to learn how to weld. So i bought some stock ls1 manifolds and flanges and built a y pipe after many mess up. Side note it will be coated and wrapped before final install.
ordered intercooler and wastegate
then for the quest of more room read about standing the radiator up. So figured why not lol.
then primered and paint matched
