The adapter on the side of the oil pan right above the oil filter, I put a brass T with a 3/16" hard line to another brass T fitting to the braided line to the turbos.

LOL.... I hope I make it to OC in the fall. It has a miss I haven't figured out yet.

This morning I got up early and installed my 80# injectors and 2.5 BAR map sensor. I then installed my 2 BAR SD OS, unfortunately the car doesn't run very well now. Gonna work on intercooler next week and then getting it tuned.

I just got my 4.8 today! Less than 70K miles on an 05 tahoe. Im gonna do your setup with only 1 hair dryer! Now I have to go back through your thread for the 10th time and study all over again....

Any quick pointers or helpful hints for me??

99VetteFRC

Take your time, and take the advice of the people on the forum. They've been there and done that. Every time I thought I can make that work even though the guys on the forum said it wouldn't, It came back to bite me in the ***. I would do it in stages, get it running n/a, than add the turbo.

ok, I hear what you are saying.. I plan to take my time and study all I can... The problem I have with what you said is, "get it running" and then do a turbo.. I really, REALLY do not wish to buy a set of headers just to get it running correctly and problem free simply because I know I will be getting a turbo and everything else that goes along with it very shortly after that. My whole reason for going with a LS swap is to go fuel injected with a turbo. Other wise I will keep my brand new 327 (built very nice might I add) in it along with brand new 650 holley.... That is what I do not want to do anymore...

I also take every pointer and all advice into great consideration.. If someone says an idea that I mentioned will not work for whatever reason, I follow up with my own research to verify what they said.. (it has all been true so far..) I have narrowed down a bunch of factors this way.. I am getting very close....

My question to you, 99vetteFRC, is there a way to get my motor running first like you suggested, without buying headers and a bunch of other parts that I will not need for my 4.8 single turbo?

You can put it on a stand and get it running that way. Or put it in your car and just use the manifolds you work out all you n/a bugs. Then bolt on your headers and turbo kit. Im with 99vette start N/A then go turbo. Think you would have less headaches that way.
