79 k10 lq4 build Hello all. Finally picked up my first LS engine! I figured i should share my build. This is going in a 1979 Chevy K10 pickup. Got an LQ4 shortblock for $500. Has Katech rod bolts, and came with an extra rotating assembly and some other extras.
The plan:
Ported /milled 317s (getting them free from a friend)
Edelbrock performer rpm intake
Msd 6ls
Schoenfeld headers
Dirty dingo mounts
Not sure on cam or carb
Stalled th400 turbo and probaby an np205 tcase.
Any input or experience is appreciated! Im trying to make 400+hp and keep it streetable. Should be a fun build

.I wont have a/c. The dd mounts look to be the best i could find, they offer adjustability and ive read good things about them. Ive changed a few plans for the engine. I plan on a tick sns stage2, ai dart/rhs heads, performer rpm, and a fast ez efi 2.0 with e85. Shes gettin pricey! Waiting for my welding apprenticeship to end so i can get my raise. 2 more weeks!!
