I've been wanting to do a turbo ls in something for a few years now. I just couldnt decide what chassis to put it in that would work the best. I debated on my 69 nova, a truck, a mustang, etc etc. I finally came to the realization that the best street car that "works" would be a foxbody, due to aftermarket supply, parts, etc etc. So i hunted down a clean 93 coupe mustang. I just got the motor sitting in it to measure for a driveshaft. I do have a few questions, but i'll ask those later. Here's kind of the build list. I have everything in this list on the car already or waiting to go on.

04 lq4 block
arp rod bolts
lsx swap oil pan
ls9 headgaskets
ls7 lifters

trunion upgraded rockers
arp head studs
all brand new oem sensors throughout
stock ls6 intake (that i'd like to trade for a pro flo xt)
s475 turbo
ebay intercooler
ls9 front mount manifolds

i'm sure im forgetting things

Transmission
Kimbler 4l60e built trans
Coan 3400 converter
forged 1350 yokes on trans and rear end

Fuel
Holley dominator billet dual fuel pump
-10 fuel supply
-8 return
id1000 injectors
fast fuel rails
aeromotive boost reference
3/4 inch drop in tank pickup instead of cell or sump

This car is going to be unique to all other swapped foxbody cars. When i get the car close to on the road i'll post pics of the interior to show why. I'll post up some pics of progress now though. Car is being built by me, tuned by DSX tuning. will post pics soon

One thing i was wondering, what would i need to buy to keep a/c and power steering? what swap bracket? i would like to keep both on the car if i could. thanks in advance

 

DSX is a great place. They just tuned my buddies Vette and they definitely know their stuff. Where abouts in Missouri are you located?

 

Good luck with the build. hope you post some pics soon. I picked up a notch and starting to collect parts for it , just not going to post anything yet until the build.

 

i have been delaying a post on this car until the engine and trans got set in the car. I'm taking pics of the whole build on my actual digital camera so i need to upload some pics from it this weekend when i get time. I'm from Cuba, MO. And as far as DSX goes, i wouldnt use anyone else. I could of used someone cheaper and went with cheaper injectors, etc, but i want it done right, tuned perfect, so i do what Dave tells me to do. He says id1000's, the car gets em. lol.

 

For AC they sell the top mount ac bracket and then I used the sanden ac compressor, stock 4 cly condenser, and stock stuff under the dash then have lines built and put the canister where you want it.

Here's mine:



And the result:
