As the title states, I have started this swap project.
Plan calls for an aluminum 4.8 build with a turbo added, 4l80e, Ford 8.8 for a drivetrain and as stock of an appearance as possible.
If anyone has any photos from a similar build or info I would love to hear it.
Thanks. #spicytaco

Still removing the old motor

10lbs in 5lb bag

 

I'm doing this same swap right now, as we speak. 94 yota Standard cab Rwd 22re 5 speed.

I tackled the suspension, brakes, wheels and tires first. The motor is a forged 370, 7875 .96 a/r billet turbo, T-56 magnum, Ford 8.8 rear.. I compiled pretty much every part for the swap w/ exception of the trans because I need the measurement of the shifter location to order the the correct transmission.

Hit me up if you have any questions. i might have some for you as well.

 

in the middle of swapping into a 95 single cab yota 2wd . What are the non turbo guys doing for manifolds? I have zero room . Looked into 99 style corvette manifolds but they still aren’t close enough to the block. Any help would be great!

 

Camaro5 orHookers cast manifolds are worth looking at

 

Chris99GMC where are you mounting the turbo? Any photos?
