Twin turbo/T56 to 4l80e/ standing up radiator build thread! Update 2017!!
this is my 00 Camaro TT build i switched from a T56 To a 4l80e, using a freshly rebuilt ls1 block with ls6 floating pin internals with gaped rings, and stock ls1 crank. LS9 cam and ls6 intake. Prc 1518 .625 lift springs and 317 lightly ported truck heads. it will have a return fuel system running dual pumps(not yet purchased) and 80# deka injectors.
engine is already built and installed with BMR turbo K member. with 100k mile 4l80e with transgo shift kit installed. and 3600rpm triple disc Precision torque converter.
my plan for the fans is stock fans cut up ofcourse and use a sheet metal fan shroud with a 1/4 in offset from the radiator surface to the blades. actual configuration may be different?
Keeping the boost low, I hope. I hate it when people boost LS1/6 blocks and run them until the paper thin cylinder sleeves split just to stick in an iron block like they should have done in the first place. Too many inconsiderate people out there blowing up perfectly good LS1/6 blocks that could have lived long healthy lives naturally aspirated.
As long as you aren't one of THOSE people, keep up the good work.

you should buy all of them so nobody else does that.....
I live in Denver. I have seen your car run at Cedar falls raceway
Right on! I only made it up there once last summer. Hopefully I will make it back that way this coming season. I stuck with Eddyville for the most part last year.
If both you guys hit CFR this year I'm going to have to make a road trip . Cool build, I'm looking at doing something similar but it won't be making much progress until next year.

Where you located? I will be out at Cedar falls this next summer as the track is only 10min from my house.
