Talking Twin Turbo LS 4th gen Nova build



HI ya’ll! I thought I would share my project. My name is Blaine and I live in Ohio. I’ve had me this 4th gen Nova for some time now. It’s had all the small blocks and big blocks, automatics and manual trans over the years. I dove into something new with the help of a friend who’s been down this road before. This is my first time with an LS, fuel injection, and turbos. Just buildin me a nice little street car/show car and adding in some amenities to make it fun on the street. Car has a forged LS, twin precision turbos, Rossler th400, ptc converter, a moser fab 9”, Baer disk brakes, speed tech control arms, coil overs up front, split monos and caltracs out back, plus all sorts of cool odds and ends. Mocked everything up first and we’re putting it together again since paint has been done. Should be a hoot!

cool! what year is the car? my dad has a 76 350 4 speed hatchback that we restored several years ago, you don't see many of these modified/swapped since they don't have as much aftermarket support like the first 3 generations. subbed to see pictures with the front clip on
