Are you going to do the LS1 lid conversion too since you have an LS engine, it would look nice

 

a turbo mod would not utilize the lid...


OP i have gotten a bit of flack about weighing the options of powerplants and my feeling is it's still GM hell even ford boys are doin the same:
way easier tunning,more power to be made due to head design plus a few other ways. this is not disrespect to the Lt1 this is makin me happy on my dime

 

yeah, it was late, didnt factor that one in

 

ummm is the O2 bung on the wrong side of the header or am i just drunk and seeing things???

 

its right, its on top on the drivers side

 

oh ic... mine faces the trany thats y i thought urs was messed up

 

Its done like that so you don't need an 02 extension.

 

Looking good Jerry. I got the 4L60e in with the Circle D converter and it feels great a lot more responsive than the TH400 it was cold and damp out so I couldn't get on it to hard.


Thanks again.

 

Hey no prob. Jeff, glad to hear everything worked out good for ya!

 

Yeah....just picked up another block....it's in the works. I would like to do what T UNIT has done and get a LS based engine but this car will stay LT1 to the end.

 

some updates...

--still waiting on parts to come in. Got the ls6 intake manifold with aeromotive fuel rails, 60lb injectors, stock ported TB. Also a little pimp factor, we pulled out the top tube and tapped it so i can run my boost gauge off of it. So no extra bungs welded on the turbo piping and i made use of that hole...

--Yella Terra shaft mounted 1.8 rockers

--Custom one-off aluminum th350/lsx crossmember made by Eric@midwest chassis

--Stock style sumped aluminum gas tank which will have a aeromotive A1000 pump feeding the 60lb injectors. I should have enough fuel for anything i put in there..

 

Cool bengal cat! Those little buggers are crazy aren't they?

 

OH **** YEA!! Hes more social then my dog, lol. I can see why bangle kittens are almost $1500!

 

Bad *** dude!!

 

Man it keeps getting better and better your throwing some good parts in this build. I think your going to be more than happy with how it runs.

 

Subscribing

 

sold some parts and got some new ones.... will post up when they arive!! OHHH YEAAAAAAAA

 

Awesome man

I wish I still had my LT.

With that 5.3 you should make your goals.

 

got my heads done today. 317 heads with Patroit extreme springs and ti. hardware. Nothing too special but the springs have a ton of seat pressure to hold back the boost.

 

Looks great! Making progress!
