pics of lq4 in the car and hot side. thought id post a few pics of the 6.0 in my nova the hot side I built on the stand worked very nice . didn't have to change it at all just had to finish the last bend to lower the turbo and fit it under the hood. I also turned the turbo to get a better shot for an air filter and it also aims the downpipe flange to eliminate a bend. it all need to come off to paint it and finish welding a couple spots but it looks better than I had hoped.
lq4 stock rebuilt shortblock, with ring opened up, 317 heads just a fresh valve job,ls9 gaskets and gmpp bolts, comp cams 206/212 528/540 lift 114 , comp 7.4 pushrods 1.75 comp rollers, pac 8017 double springs. stock truck intake , it will get 80#injectors , tc-78 turbo. 350 th and 3.23 gears. car should be about 3400 lbs. looking for 10.0s when tuned in .

yes it will be pumpgas to start I might go e85 later it is about 20 miles from me. and I don't want to start off with anything else that I haven't messed with before. trans might get replaced by spring if the money don't run low with the engine build. lol.thanks
What size turbine and ar on that tc turbo? I think that turbo should get you in the tens but I think that will really limit you. Back pressure will be really high and I think it will max out around 600-650whp
it has the f1-68 turbine with a .96 housing but I want to get it running then look for a bigger housing I think they make several up to a 1.52 ar. this is my first turbo ls build so im starting out mild and working up . the car is only getting a 6 pt bar so 10 flat or 135 mph is all im looking for .
if you look close there is a slip joint right in front of the balancer so I can use a 2.5 band clamp and let it move around a little. plus it is nice to remove one side at a time if I want to. thanks.

I want the power but that is not the total reason behind the build. what I want is a much better driving car than my current 11 sec solid lifter 406 and a second faster don't hurt my feelings to much.
not really I did spend some time cleaning it up with the biscuit and a hand grinder but it was just warm. then when I welded it I didn't just weld it in one pass I kind of spot welded it and moved around and didn't let the heat get to hot in one spot. welded up very nice better than I though it whould. much better castings than the old stuff.
